Why I did better across the board? My reaction times have been steadily going down for a long time. I'm just learning the task better and better; how long the learning has continued (hundreds of tests) surprised me when I did the analysis that showed it. This experiment was followed by another experiment in which I did see an RT decrease due to exercise. Thanks, Bob.

I'm not surprised that you don't see an effect in this set because you're already responding faster than you do in other sets (even post-exercise). Any speculation on why you did better across the board on Saturday? This is my first comment to your blog so I also want to take a moment and thank you for the consistently intriguing posts.
