Between 1932 and 2008 the world record times of the men’s 100m sprint improved by .6 seconds. This improvement is mostly due to improved training techniques, proper nutrition and technological innovations.
A recent study presented at a meeting of the Society for Experimental Biology exhibited a group of mice running in their own version of the rodent Olympics on a treadmill improved their running similarly by .6 seconds. In just two weeks. By simply changing their diet.
Could you imagine the impact this “secret formula” could have if humans were wise enough to adapt it to their training?
Here it is. Specifically eating a diet rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids.
The kind of fats we enjoy with Omega-3 fatty acid rich fish (salmon, herring, sardines, oysters, trout).
So basically the mice improved their performance in two weeks, equivalent to what it took humans to do in 75 years by eating a diet rich in polyunsaturated fats.
