Yep, that's it.Steve, I'm not sure what I said that you disagree with, unless you are saying that whether or not a blood-donating diver perceives any decrease in his or her performance depends upon the donor's body size more than any other factor.

I just disagree with the idea that the more fit person will in general "notice" a lower performance just because they're more in touch with the reality of their fitness...
