I agree with dropping down. I think you can read books about being a LAG, read posts about LAGs, even master the LAG ways in theory, but until you get out there and play 50,000+, 100,000+ hands while raising and reraising relentlessly, you will not truely understand the style because you have not experienced it yourself.

In my experience you will be able to better deal with being played back at once you have seen many different types of players adjust to your play. Once they adjust to your play, you have to adjust to theirs, and it's a never ending cycle.
