I do not think that in 10-15 minutes I would have a
good workout.  I find that it takes a while for me to
get to a point where I am exerting strenuously.  I
have old injuries and so I find that I do better to
increase poundage gradually rather than just jump into
the heaviest weight that plan to do for reps.

I am planning on cutting back on the length of my
workout.  In the past I found my body responded to 45
minute work outs well. I do not think that I need 75
minutes anymore.  My intensity in increased and it is
no longer summer.  This summer was very active for me.
 After reading Lights Out I have, I think, a better
understanding of the effect of the seasons on our
physiology. I do not think that my level of activity
in the summer will be appropriate for the winter.
Hopefully, I will find that I will create less of a
craving for carbs as I cut back from 75 minutes to 45
minutes.

  My two week experiment with oatmeal as a carb source
is essentially over.  I did not like the effect it had
on me.  My energy in the morning after workouts WAS
actually better in that it was longer after breakfast
before I wanted to eat lunch.  The problems, however,
that I experienced are mainly digestive and my gums
are getting more sensitive.
