Anyone using blocking since its been documented it helps 'slightly' in shedding blocks.

I am very interested in knowing the results of using blocking, i'm skeptical, but I've heard others say it works well.

dont do it!!!
it is not worth.. train jumping or confidence instead!!

or invest in the shed block SA instead..

I'd only train is occasionally and nothing above 15 or so. I put spare SP into jumping and catching last season and my guy had a career high in PDs. Need to start turning those into INTs though.

I would train Confidence/Jumping/Catching/Carrying before Blocking.

Why carrying? Unless you just picked the ball you won't be carring the ball at all and when you do, no one trying to tackle you (the other tema offense) will be a very effective ball stripper.

Why train Blocking ?

According to Bort, blocking is suppose to help your player shed blocks to a small degree, although I think it is such a small amount it is not worth it so I don't bother with blocking at all anymore. I just wanted to know the thinking behind training carrying as I have not trained it even once and my guy is at at level 32 now.

Trained it to 20 after jumping, catching confidence were at 23. Meh

As a LB I assume blocking should be near the bottom of your list of important attributes.

I would rather train jumping up to 40 than train blocking up to 20.

I over-trained blocking after reading in the guide how blocking helps shed blockers but everyone seems to say that it's a waste so I'm pretty bummed about it. That said I'm gonna try to start using power-blitzing rather than elusive and see if it starts showing up.
