Yup, started about a year and some months ago, 5 days a week, only took a week off. I'm having a blast. The noob gain period is amazing. I went from 164 lbs currently at 189 lbs, (5'11) with very little if all of that fat. Bench tripled, squat a little more than tripled and dead lift almost quadrupled. Military doubled. I'm at that point now where I need to tweak a little to get over the plateau.

Progressive overload. Either increase weight, reps, or intensity each subsequent set. Easiest way to get over a plateau for me. Then again, I work with progressive overload daily and I've been lifting for over a decade, so I just understand how my body gains. Your mileage may vary.

      FA may or may not be the best option each time. You know as well as I do that the LT is the highest paid position on offense behind QB and WR. If you have cap concerns, it would be better to draft a quality LT and hold him for 3-4 years before you have to sign him to a long term (and expensive 2nd contract). I wouldn't want to acquire a run stuffing DT in FA if I could get a younger one much cheaper in the draft.  Let's say no good Safties are on the market when prior to drafting. Once again you'd go to the draft. FA is a good way to feel out the roster prior to the draft, but it's possible to REACH there too. FO's usually end up over playing guys (at least at certain positions) who have already peaked. Besides, you always have to consider that the team that let them go didn't think they were worth the price they were asking to retain them. That certainly applies to our defense. We could draft the BPA at any level of our defense and immediately improve our team. A stud on the line beside DB would help the the run and pass defense. Our LB core needs a thumper/impact player at any position. We need another CB to play alongside JC. We have yet to see a Safety on our roster significantly impact a game this year.

      Maybe Rod will change it up and slot Bussi in net. Why risk the inevitable injury to Freddie this early in the season against a team that will likely win regardless.  Just show up and play to win, that's all I ask.

      Well, I feel the same way about pharmaceutical, junk/fast food and political ads. They all cause active and KNOWN harm to the populace but we are the penultimate corrupt Western country, so that's just where we are as a society.
