There are good fats and there ar ebad fats, and those who want premium bodies should make a clear distinction between the two.
A BB who holds 15% bodyfat, carries about 12% of his fat as energy and the other 3% is essentail bodyfat that acts like insulation and cushioning to vital organs. If you see someone who says that they are below 3% its strictly hype and NOT TRUE. I have been below 5% and ended up very ill while trying to stay at this BF for an extended period of time.
Essential Fats:
Food fats and oils are comprised of fattty acids. As it implies it contains some fat and some acid. The fat is made up of different carbon chains.
Saturated fats like the name implies, have all there carbon atoms saturated so that can contain no more carbon. UNsaturated fats have spaces where the atoms are missing. The spaces link up with molecules in the body which in turn make them biologicaly active. IN contrast, saturated fats have no empty links and are inert. So to achieve you goal to be as lean as possible you need to avoid saturated fats, BUT NOT all fats.
Different Sources of Healthy Fats:
-Fish Oils
-Olive Oil
-FLaxseed Oil (contain Linoleic & Linolenic)
-Borage Oil & Evening Primrose Oil (which contain GLA)
-Hemp Oil
-MCT
There is only 1 rule that I suggest for consuming Healthy Fats and that is do not consumne them post workout. Because dietary fats slow down gastric emptying which means your food is digested slowly and PWO you want them to be digested as quickly as possible.
