Interesting. So I been training a couple new trainees OD all last season and did get a couple pops in HA....but should I really be training 1v1 to boost HA and DR in order to really increase OF and other skills trained as they get older?? I always liked boosting the trainees defensive skills and then work on JS, IS PA. But I just today had an MR scout email me and said train to get my newest trained until DR was 15.....seriously?

No..lol. Not upset at all. I just thought training to get handling/Driving to 15 to make the elastic effect work properly. So it got me wondering it would propbably take 2-3 seasons to get to 15 for that high and slow traing on the defensive skills. I'm just amazed at how this is kind of unfolding in front of me because i never really concentrated on 1v1 for a whole season...or in his case up to 2 and into the trainees 3rd season..So, No..Really, I am not upset/mad, just interesting stuff here and much appreciate your info.

DUDE!! Way to come outta nowhere and make such an answer....THATS, what i was waiting to hear. You and I spoke before and you blew through our D4 in a very little time. So yeah, I have a couple trainees that are OK with their handles and driving but i still want to train they're defense....I'm not looking to train players for the national team i just train to have them perform for the team i'm developing. Like right now, currently....I am training ID on a couple 6-5 trainees who are well balanced but i want them to be excellent forwards to play outside and inside so i am training ID for a few weeks and will switch to IS or JS/forwards or 1/1 forwards. Throughout this season hoping they pop at least a few times in defense and still pop in HA/DR as well as IS.
Good to hear from you again..Hope D3 is going good for you. Last i heard from you were getting scorched lol which is what I'm dealing with now since promoting. Thank You for the advice

Check out the Coach Parrot excel sheet because it contains a tab called Coach, where you can select pre-built training programs or create one for your player(s). Coach parrot will generate weekly training focus for you based off optimal elastic effect and I have yet to see it recommend 1vs1 F for an entire season.

Thanks for the clarification.
