How to train low cost or just have an idea to how to train?

[talisman]

What I do to power-train Quality is this:

Make sure your (one) player that you want to PT is at or near 99% condition.

1) Use the drills below as many times as it takes to drain condition to below 30% (you can't train if your player is <30% condition).



2) Refill condition using Green packs to close to 99% (you won't always get back to 99%, and when you get to above 90% don't waste a green pack by making sure that it is 99%).

3) Repeat two or three more times.

4) Then, with your player condition topped up, select one training drill that will benefit the most white skills in that player's skill makeup (do some analysis or find a training crib sheet).

Go back through 1) to 3)

This time, when you get to 4), select a different drill to the one you used first. You need to select a different single drill every time as repeating a drill loses the full benefit of the training.

Repeat, repeat until you get to the Quality rating you desire, or you run out of Green packs

What if i want to do this more than 2-3 times? (Don't laugh at me, never did diz before)

Really? Are you sure? I do power-training several times per season, and I always train players with only one drill (except GKT) until the guy has ~320% in one skill. I have never noticed that this drill is not working well after several sessions.
I train as GKT x5 + other_drill, because I don't want to waste everything in case of disconnect.
Can you please explain this?

Likewise I never do more than 1 session of 5 times GK + 1 other drill because of fear of disconnect. Rinse and repeat.

That's because you're training for mutant players - I train for players with balanced skills. My power training works for me - yours works for you...

As for disconnects, I have very little problem as I do my power training on my laptop on a super-fast broadband connection. I still get disconnections, but very rarely.

Wait, you said:

You need to select a different single drill every time as repeating a drill loses the full benefit of the training.

You even highlighted it. I don't understand how repeating a drill will reduce the benefit of the training, and how does it connected with mutant or balanced players?
I'm not trying to be offensive, but it looks like you are selling your feelings and guesses as truth, with no room for doubts. I guess you believe in god too.

so you are going for balanced white skills. ok.
what would be right balance, how much offset in them would be acceptable?

and what about special abilities, let's say player has dribling SA, does it not make sense to push for drills that emphasises dribling even more? let's say 20% above his other attributes?

No one know for sure what skills and SA do. There are no tests, no research, nobody can prove that balanced players are better or worse than mutants. I tried both ways, and I liked mutants better. But, honestly, I have no proof, there are enormous amount of other factors. Many successful managers, like nikolgiorgos, think that skills don't matter at all. They may be right.
So it's up to you to try everything and believe in what you want to believe. Just take other's advises about training process with a grain of salt.
The same goes to exact orders for a formation. We know almost nothing about the mechanics. And anyone who says "do like this, not like that" knows even less.
