Hit the gym this morning at 6am...

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!

    • I can't get behind a purely subjective re-draft as a method of defining "top-10 QB" status. That invites bias based on vibes/hypotheticals and can ignore actual on-field performance. You and others have said that Bryce has to be a top-10 QB to justify the pick. That's a high bar, which I'm not against, but we need a clear, consistent way to measure it. When I bring up metrics that Bryce has registered in the top-10 in like BTT%, P2S ratio, catchable deep ball rate, etc... they're waved off as either irrelevant or the expected baseline performance. Meanwhile, volume stats like passing yards or win-loss records, both of which depend heavily on roster talent, health, and coaching, are treated as definitive. That's where the inconsistency kicks in. If no performance metric ever counts in his favor and the answer is always going to be "he should be doing that," then we're not evaluating him... we're just holding him to a curve he can't win against. If this is really about performance standards, then let's define them. But if it's just about confirming prior takes based on height and weight, then let's call it what is it and stop pretending that this is a football analysis discussion.
    • Just to be clear: I'm not "downplaying" the talent around Bryce... I'm qualifying it. There's a big difference between saying, "we finally have building blocks that we're actually developing" and "we've done enough to say this is a finished product, NO EXCUSES!" It's possible to believe that the 2023 situation was bad and to believe that the current state, while improved, is still incomplete. That's not inconsistency; that's nuance. As for the footwork stuff, again, I've seen the same clips as others. The claim that Bryce is hopping to see over the line just isn't one I've seen corroborated by analysts or tape breakdown. "Both feet off of the ground to throw" happens a ton for QBs (ex: Mahomes, Rodgers, Purdy, etc.), especially when improvising. You're right that there were some encouraging flashes from Bryce last season, and it's nice to finally hear that after so much time was spent pretending otherwise. I'm not arguing that Bryce is elite, I'm just asking that we evaluate him using consistent, measurable criteria to determine his status as a top-10 QB... whether it's via 3rd down %, red zone efficiency, turnover-worthy plays, or yes, big-time throws (which, by the way, has been a valid part of QB evaluation across the league for years even if it wasn't used here during Kyle Allen or Teddy Bridgewater's years. For reference: Allen had 20 BTT at a 3.9% rate. Teddy had 17 BTT at 3.3%). Like you, I'm hoping to see a competent, entertaining offense this season. That's a baseline we can all root for, even if we don't have the same baseline for what makes a QB top-10 (which, to be fair, is what this conversation has been about... though I respect the attempt to reframe it).
    • I am optimistic that we might be on the verge of fielding a sustainable offense finally. The Bryce stats listed above are definitely encouraging. I don’t want to overly inflate this and disregard the previous 1 and a half seasons of production from Bryce and “cherry pick” stats but do hope the benching turns into an inflection point in his trajectory.      Lots of excitement heading into this season.
