im 42 and try to sweat some way, some how at least 3-4 times a week. I play hoops every other week during school and every week from spring to late summer. not to mention a super competitive church league for 10 wks.

now about to start rotating Sat's between hoops and soccer.

i would love to get up early and hit the gym but just can't do it. i focus on cardio more than anything else and need to up the lifting just a tad.

I get up too early as it is so I hit the gym at lunch. I'm lucky that my office is close. I'm 46 and either lift or run 4-5 days a week.

I figure the more I move now the better I'll be moving later when I'm old.

I wish I could do this. Not as easy for girls as it is for guys.

Bah, you sound like my gf. Girls can run just like guys do. Or drive to the gym. And you look better doing it. ;)

I'm 29 and go to the gym about 4 days/week. During the winter I usually dont work out in the morning, but in the spring/summer/fall I will run about 3 miles in the am.

Start off slow and don't kill yourself. If you don't you will be pretty sore and may not want to go back.

My wife likes to go @ 5pm after work daily. She has been pissed that I don't go with her. For me, when I get home from work, the last thing I want to do is workout. I am gonna try this morning thing out for a while. I am gonna do 3 days a week or whatever my schedule allows and see how it goes. Hopefully I will stick with it.

I have tried to also change my diet, I am trying to eat a lot of veggies. However, I still have an appetite for junk food, I need to kick it though!

    • Congratulations do they know who the father is?
    • In my opinion Fitterer was probably right about not paying McCaffrey. Now not wanting to "pay RBs" in my opinion isn't something you want to set in stone, to me it all comes down to the individual.
    • Maybe I'm just not understanding, but everywhere that I have read says that signing bonuses go against the cap prorated by as much as five years. The following example uses Andrew Luck's rookie contract as an example. "Take Andrew Luck, the first overall pick in the 2012 NFL draft. Luck signed a four-year contract with the Colts worth $22.1 million and included a $14.5 million signing bonus. Rather than a $14.5 million cap hit in 2012, the Colts spread out his signing bonus over the life of his contract. The hit against the cap would be $3.625 million per year over four years instead of a direct cap hit of $14.5 million directly in 2012. This gave the Colts more leverage and cap flexibility in signing other players." https://www.the33rdteam.com/nfl-signing-bonuses-explained/ I don't know why some of you think that signing bonuses aren't counted against the cap over the length of the contract, but whatever.   "The bonus with a signing is usually the most garish aspect of a rookie contract. Bonus is the immediate cash players receive when they ink a deal. It factors into the cap, but only for the whole contract duration, in terms of salary cap calculations. In the case of Bryce Young’s $24.6 million signing bonus, that’s prorated to approximately $6.15 million per season over a four-year deal. This format allows teams to handle the cap and provides rookies with some short-term fiscal stability, which is important given the high injury risk in this league." https://collegefootballnetwork.com/how-rookie-contracts-work-in-the-nfl/ I understand how signing bonuses can be a useful tool in order to manage the cap, and as one of the article suggests, signing bonuses may become important if you have a tight cap, but the bill is always going to come due. I'm not necessarily referring to you Tuka, but it seems to me that others simply don't want to understand that fact which is why they're reacting to what I'm saying negatively. How odd. In any event, I have a better general understanding of why signing bonuses are used now, and it's generally to fit salaries under the cap. Surely players, whether they be rookies or not, love a signing bonus because they get a good portion of their money up front. This in turn gives them more security and probably amounts to tax benefits as well. I also understand why teams would not want to use signing bonuses, particularly for players or draftees who have a higher probability of being gone before a contract even ends.
