Training: Two steps forward, one step back?

[Richards]

I've been looking around at rules and hattricks and have not seen anything to indicate this to be true, but maybe someone can verify for me:

If I am, say, training scoring (I am.) And I take a week or two off to train stamina (not for awhile, but I'm curious) , do I or don't I lose any ground skill and training wise on the scoring training?

You shouldn't lose anything, but you just won't gain anything further until you start train scoring again.

NAIWF is right, you don't lose anything numbers or statwise. You do however lose one of the most important commodities for a trainer, time.. or more specifically, time before a player becomes 21 and is sub-optimal for training.

Having said that, sometimes you just have to train stamina or even general. Doesn't make it any less painful when I think how much sooner that trainee would pop and become sellable and open up a slot for a new recruit to start training.

What NAIWF said is true. Also, you gotta see your training as a per player kind of thing. You don't train your team in scoring, but a certain number of players (your forwards). If on a given week you decide to give everybody a stamina training, they will increase their stamina, but nobody will lose any scoring, at least not if they are below 27 years of age...
