Madden Training Tips
If you are one of the few gamers out there who have been struggling with the Madden Training mode, Noah Weber is stepping in to give you some tips on how to up your game in each mini-game. Check out what he has to say in his article, Madden Training Tips.
"OK, so you’ve started up a new franchise and you’re ready to turn your team into the next dynasty. You’re going to have to get it done on Sundays, but first you need to learn how to get it done on the practice field. Here are a few tips to help you master some of the drills, and build your players into superstars. (Note: these tips are for the standard training drills, not the virtual trainer)"Tags: None -
My recommendations (and for those who don't feel like reading the whole thing):
Offensive RB Challenge: Spin
Defensive RB Challenge: Don't get blocked
Offensive Coverage Challenge: Space yourself enough, catch it in the endzone, duh?
Defensive Coverage Challenge: Stay inside, otherwise good luck.
QB Challenge: I can't stress this enough: forget touchdowns - it's all about the consecutive catch count. Yes, TDs will give you points, but just go for the open man regardless of how close or far he is. -

Re: Madden Training Tips
The coverage Drill: Let the computer take control. Once the pass gets thrown take over your DB and either tackle or defend the pass. Keeping the WR out of the endzone is all you need.
RB challenge: Head straight to the outside, this works if you have a fast RB. You'll outrun all the defenders up the sideline into the endzone.
Run Defense: Take control of the back defender (usually your SS), let the LBs make the plays and just loiter in the backfield in case the RB breaks free. If playing franchise see DL drill below to make this a lot easier...
Bench Press: There is another thread where I have described my unorthodox controller holding to make this work...
OL: Such an easy drill. If you are after pancakes start running back to the running back to give you some room to charge into the oncoming defense. One block usually has your RB running up the sideline to daylight. I have managed to score 140,000+ points on this drill in all-madden...
40 yard dash: I struggle on this, can't seem to make it in all-madden. I think the key is timing, its not about speed but rythm... again, I struggle on this one...
DL: This can be real simple if you want it to be in franchise... sign a slow FB and put him in the starting RB position, start the drill and charge into the backfield taking out the slow FB with the hit stick...Comment

Re: Madden Training Tips
Great recommendation with the D-line drill, I actually have been doing that myself all over the place in franchise mode:
QB: Before the drill, substitute all of your defensive backs with their back-ups.
RB: Before the drill, substitute all of your defensive lineman and linebackers with your backups.
OL: Very easy, I can usually get 143k on this.
WR: Before the drill, substitute your best cornerback with your worse.
40: I'm not too good at this yet, but getting better. It does seem to be about rhythm more than anything.
Bench: I suck at this, as pointed out in another thread.Comment

Re: Madden Training Tips
I use to have the same problem with this (getting around 5.9 ect... I've improved a bit but still only getting around 4.8).
My advice is start slow and go one after the other not in a one two motion. Do it like its a beat 1,2,3,4,1,2,3,4, and say it in your head so you keep time.
Not sure if that made sense but yeahAFL - Sydney Swans
NBA - Cleveland Cavaliers
NFL - Atlanta Falcons
NHL - New Jersey DevilsComment

Re: Madden Training Tips
40 yard dash is all about rythm. i can get 4.4's at worst with a decent player.
i use index fingers, clamp the controller somewhere, and flick the sticks towards you and let them come back up.Comment
