Filed under: Nutrition
As promised, here is my nutrition and supplement plan for my injury recovery. The article itself went up on ericcressey.com It was excellent timing as EC asked if I could write a guest post as he was going to be out of town for the week, so I threw it his way. Check it out!

Hey Brian,
I read your blog on EC’s website. Great stuff! The part about the intermittent fasting stuff have me slightly intrigued. Not sure it’s for me, but I’m looking into it a bit more. I know you said that you are not super-duper strict with it, but I have two questions: Don’t you get full and do you ever feel like you’re having to force feed yourself?
You’re seem to be meeting your daily caloric needs in an eight hour window. That is, eating most of the same stuff that you eat based on your “Day in the Life” blogs. Man, I hate that full feeling and eating when I’m not hungry is tough.
Hope the master’s and PN position are going great!

Hi Brian…thanks for interesting post. I’ve seen recommendations for up to 2.5g of EPA/DHA per day but you’re taking 1.2g. Is there are reason you settled on 1.2g or do you see any disadvantages to increasing daily intake past 1.2g?

Walt,
I don’t ever feel like I am force-feeding myself actually. I simply went from eating 4x/d to 3x/d. It really hasn’t felt difficult at all. I am usually hungry come meal time. I’m not suggesting you even need to try IF, but my experience hasn’t been bad at all. I’m not sure I will do this indefinitely, especially as my daughter gets older as I will probably want to eat breakfast with her.
Chris,
My usual maintenance dose is 1.2g yes. The majority of the data indicates you are best off between 1-2g of EPA & DHA per day. I tend to stick to the lower end because I also do not consume vegetable oils or other poor sources of n-6, and I do consume grass-fed meats and dairy, along with pasture-raised eggs, and n-3 rich seeds, so I feel my fish oil needs are lower. When it comes to supplements more is not always better.

Unquestionably believe that which you stated. Your favorite
reason seemed to be on the net the easiest thing to be aware of.
I say to you, I certainly get irked while people think about worries that they just do not know about.
You managed to hit the nail upon the top and defined out
the whole thing without having side effect , people can take a signal.
Will likely be back to get more. Thanks

Hi there! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any trouble with hackers?
My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up
losing many months of hard work due to no backup.
Do you have any solutions to prevent hackers?

Asking questions are really fastidious thing if you are not understanding something fully, but this post gives good
understanding yet.
