| Objectives | |
| Narrative objectives1 | Fish oils mainly compose of polyunsaturated fatty acids including eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA). Because EPA is especially reported for high anti-inflammatory activity, EPA-rich fish oil may possess the effect on delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS).
The purpose of this study is investigating the influence of EPA for DOMS following eccentric contractions. |

| Assessment | |
| Primary outcomes | I. After ingestion of tested materials for 8 weeks, subjects perform eccentric contraction with elbow flexors.
Before ECC, at 0, 1,2,3,5days after ECC 1. maximal isometric torque 2. range of motion 3. upper arm circumference 4. muscle soreness measured as a visual analog scale 5. blood test creatine kinase, myoglobin,IL-6, TNF-alpha II. work output of elbow flexors during ECC |
| Key secondary outcomes | Before and after ingestion of tested materials, weight, height and body fat percentage |

| Results | MVC was significantly higher in the EPA group than in the PL group at 2 - 5 days after exercise (p < 0.05). ROM was also significantly greater in the EPA group than in the PL group at 1 - 5 days after exercise (p < 0.05). At only 3 days after exercise, muscle soreness of the brachialis was significantly greater in the PL group than in the EPA group (p < 0.05), with a concomitant increase in serum IL-6 levels in the PL group. |

| Baseline Characteristics | Healthy men |
||||||
| Participant flow | Twenty-four healthy men were randomly assigned to consume the EPA + DHA supplement (EPA, n = 12) or placebo (PL, n = 12) by the double-blind method. Participants consumed EPA + DHA or placebo supplement for 8 weeks prior to exercise and continued it until 5 days after exercise. |
