3 REASONS YOU SHOULD TRY FISH OIL

Even if you get in every second of the recommended 75 weekly minutes of vigorous exercise, your body isn't a timeless vessel. To have a happy, healthy and long life, it's important to do all you can to reduce your risk for potentially harmful ailments and improve your overall well-being. Many individuals use fish oil supplements to advance their health. That's because this dietary add-on is full of omega-3 fatty acids, including the long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids DHA and EPA. Are you wondering what the fish-oil hype is all about? Check out these three reasons you should try our omega-3 oil:

1. It's healthy for your heart, a muscle that has a big impact on your overall health
According to the American Heart Association, omega-3 fatty acids benefit the heart of both healthy individuals and people at a higher risk for cardiovascular disease. Specifically, omega-3s can reduce the risk for abnormal heart beats and lower triglyceride levels and inhibit plaque growth in the arteries.

A healthy heart is crucial for your overall well-being. The Mayo Clinic explained that cardiovascular disease can lead to heart attack or failure, stroke and aneurysms, just to name a few complications. Plus, certain heart conditions can restrict how frequently and intensely you can safely work out, which may deprive you of the benefits of staying active.

2. A better mood can lead to a better you
Fish oil is not intended to be used as a treatment for depression, but it may alleviate mild symptoms of the blues by increasing the body's release of serotonin, one of the neurotransmitters responsible for boosting your mood. Getting this extra bit of happiness is advantageous for more than just brightening your outlook on life. It can increase your productivity, decrease your levels of anxiety, improve your health and broaden your scope of creativity. As a result, a positive mood can help you be your best self.

"Omega-3 oils may assist in fighting against dementia."

3. Boost your brain power
Fish oil benefits may help delay cognitive decline, allowing you to maintain brain function for later into life. As a result, omega-3 oils may assist in fighting dementia, including Alzheimer's disease. However, the benefits are apparent only when you consume enough fish oil, meaning supplements may be a viable option for those who either can't or don't want to eat fish several times per week.

Aside from providing all these health benefits, adding omega-3 oil supplements to your diet is simply easier than acquiring these nutrients through other mediums. You don't necessarily have to cook an entire meal to get the DHA and EPA you need, and you reduce your risk of consuming mercury by opting for omega-3 oil over regular fish. Our omega-3 oil products go through a certification of analysis process that indicates mercury is below detectable levels. Finally, our liquid formulation delivers a higher strength of omega-3 oils than gel capsules. Plus, with delicious flavors like lemon, peppermint, vanilla, chocolate and orange, taking a teaspoon can be tasty, too.

Inspiration At It's Best

It's easy for some of us (including me) to forget how blessed we are on a daily basis. We get up, roll through the motions of the day and quite often take for granted our nearly perfect health. We may have some aches and pains, or feel run down, and tired. But, overall it's nothing compared to what some people are fighting through each and every day.

As I watched this video last night with tears streaming down my face, heart aching, and feeling incredibly proud of CrossFit and our community in it's entirety, I realized how much I have to be grateful for in my life. Each day is a gift, and I intend on staying healthy, fit, strong, and thankful for all that God has given me. 

I hope you find the same appreciation and feel as inspired by Whitney and her story as I do.

We only have one life, let's live it to it's fullest!!

2 Simple Thoughts

There are two things I would like for every athlete to think about when you find yourself feeling frustrated with the time and patients it takes to master a movement, or the progressions you must work in order to reach to your goal.

1. "No matter how advanced you are as an athlete or mover, the best way to keep improving is to master the basics" -Carl Paoli 

2. "Build the beginning, build the end. Work the middle!!" -Carl Paoli 

Master the basics and keep moving forward!! You will never get there by quitting or resisting the process!

Trust and listen to your coach, because you reaching YOUR goal, is OUR dream come true!
