#098 How to Train According to the Experts

So yeah, I look at some of those studies and I mean, I do take omega-3 myself.

FoundMyFitness

I think I take two grams per day.

FoundMyFitness
#098 How to Train According to the Experts

So maybe I need to up my dose to three to five grams per day based on some of this research here.

But yeah, like cardiac stuff too, you know, I think makes sense to take that for recovery purposes for sure.

FoundMyFitness
#098 How to Train According to the Experts

Yeah, but I think something to note there too is that while they all, while, you know, Stu Phillips and Brad Schoenfeld and, you know, basically all the experts who we put evidence for into this guide, they recommended these protein intakes, quoted that it was very important, but all of them really emphasized that nothing kind of compares to the resistance training.

FoundMyFitness
#098 How to Train According to the Experts

So yeah, protein intake is important, but if you're not resistance training, you're kind of really missing out on that aspect.

FoundMyFitness

And I think total daily protein intake was one of the things that stood out as that is the most important factor when it comes to if people have questions about how much or when do I eat it or how much or how do I distribute it.

FoundMyFitness

Total daily protein intake, that seems to be the most important thing.

FoundMyFitness

So just making sure you're getting enough during the day.

FoundMyFitness
#098 How to Train According to the Experts

But

FoundMyFitness
#098 How to Train According to the Experts

Two things that, you know, were also talked about were regarding protein distribution.

FoundMyFitness
#098 How to Train According to the Experts

So and that refers to, you know, timing and distribution, I guess, is how we could phrase it.

FoundMyFitness
#098 How to Train According to the Experts

So when to eat your protein, particularly maybe with regards to exercise, and then how to distribute it throughout the day.

FoundMyFitness
#098 How to Train According to the Experts

Regarding timing, there's this concept known as the anabolic window.

FoundMyFitness

And this was kind of an earlier idea where it was once thought that, you know,
