Yes - the stronger the player the slower he does gain any skill points (which are needed as well for training a special ability).

I only train my players new positions or special abilities when they do have less than 100%.

If one young player does very well in the course of a season I do wait till the next one so he will lose again 20% of his strength and therefore he can train faster.
