Table 1. Changes of food frequency surveys and serum dihomo-gamma-linolenic acid, arachidonic acid, eicosapentaenoic acid, docosahexaenoic acid.
Figure 1. Changes (mean ± SD) in maximal voluntary isometric contraction (MVC) torque at 90° measured before (pre) and immediately after (post) the eccentric contractions exercise and 1, 2, 3, and 5 days after in the placebo (PL) group, the BCAA group, and the BCAA+FO group. * p < 0.05 for the difference between the PL group and the BCAA+FO group. † p < 0.05 for the difference from the pre-exercise value in the PL group. § p < 0.05 for the difference from the pre-exercise value in the BCAA group. ♯ p < 0.05 for the difference from the pre-exercise value in the BCAA+FO group.

Figure 2. Changes (mean ± SD) in range of motion (ROM) (A) and muscle soreness (B), and blood serum creatine kinase level (C) measured before (pre) and immediately after (post) the eccentric contractions exercise and 1, 2, 3 and 5 days after in the placebo (PL) group, the BCAA group, and the BCAA+FO group. * p < 0.05 for the difference between PL and BCAA group. † p < 0.05 for the difference from the pre-exercise value in the PL group. § p < 0.05 for the difference from the pre-exercise value in the BCAA group. ♯ p < 0.05 for the difference from the pre-exercise value in the BCAA+FO group.
