Discussion on: Why does the Pomodoro Technique work so well

25 minutes does not work for me! I'm usually only just getting my teeth deep into the issue, so the 25 minute checkpoint makes me feel like I'm breaking a groove. Once I switched to 50 & 10, things evened out a bit better.

I'll also do 45 minutes at times so I can get a bit of play in with my office mates (my dogs).

Does anyone try longer than 45 - 50 minutes? If so, do you feel like the point of the exercise is lost?
