I go to bed early now and again. I don't know why because I'm usually more tired the next day than when I stay up late. Kathy told me that you called. I'm suprprised you got through as she had settled in with the phone.
I do know that van Aaken, while advocating real thinness also acknowledged that everyone had a point where they couldn't get their weight much lower than it was. He said in an interview that both Norpoth and Prefontaine were about as thin as they could be.
vladmir, I haven't seen that article. Is it online or do you need to find a copy of that magazine somewhere? I know that there is no shortage of articles in the exercise physiology journals that contradict an approach like van Aaken's but I'm still waiting for those authors to produce a really successful athlete.
