G, Thanks for the response and info. I have read Colgan's Optimal Sports Nutrition about five years ago. It is a great reference. I was wondering what tests you have done. I know you have done the VO2 max test. Are there any others you reccomend? By the way, I have been incorporating a lot of DIR into rock climbing. (My other hobby) I have really been thinking out what is the easiest and most sensible way to rig my gear so I don't fly off a rock halfway up the mountain.
