Now, you kind of told me a little bit in your question. You said you're finding it hard to get motivated and you're sometimes feeling like you're spinning your wheels. So I think a better question to ask would be, would I get the same results if I worked out less or would I get better results if I worked out less? Probably.

You probably, if you cut it down to an hour, I don't think you'd see any slowdown in progress. I mean, five pounds of muscle in a year is... It's pretty damn good. You're doing pretty well. So if you cut it down to an hour, I don't think you would see a reduction in progress. You might actually see yourself progressing more.

I don't know. Because you're progressing. Your testosterone is good. You're building muscle. So I don't know if you're necessarily overtraining. If you're noticing insomnia, excessive soreness and stiffness, if your progress is going backwards, then you're probably overdoing it.

You know, the thing too, Ron, just from what I'm hearing from what you're saying, If this is something you want to be able to do for the rest of your life, you want to exercise, you want to stay mobile and strong and independent for the rest of your life, the most important thing to consider in the entire context of this is the relationship that you have with exercise.
