I recently bought a 18 year old PA PF I plan to train each week for several seasons. If I train ID for the rest of this season what other pops can I expect? I have a superior trainer...

Also, I have a thread saved from 2009 that is a training timetable but thought that possibly a newer more accurate one exists.

Well, a lot of this stuff is depending on what his stats currently are. If you focus solely on ID, if ID is a good 4-5 points lower than his IS and sB, he'll probably improve a little bit more there. If you have a lower IS and SB, it's possible that the "7-8 weeks" listed in the training speed analysis thread might be slightly pessimistic (say 6-7 instead?) and you might get a pop of each. I also believe you could potentially get one in RB, although it's not the most likely thing in the world.

Another thing that needs to be looked at is 1pos vs 2pos training. Of course, if you do 1pos it'll go faster than if you do 2pos, but I m not sure if that really helps out when considering secondary training there.

Thanks I appreciate the help.

Should I sprinkle in RB every few weeks or just focus on ID at first? What is your opinion?

If you're training 1pos for ID, you should expect to get to somewhere in the respectable-proficient range this season if that's your only training, but I agree with rotating in some kind of training other than that some. Something I'd like to suggest is to rotate in a week of 1on1 for forwards after each ID pop (just one week, then back to ID), because it would improve his Handling, Driving, and Inside Shot. At the cost of ID only reaching the Mediocre-Strong range on the season (depending on how strong the elastic effect is, I'm not sure entirely), his Handling should at least get from pitiful to inept, I'd hope, and driving to respectable or even strong coupled with potentially a pop from respectable to strong on IS and a pop from mediocre to respectable in JS, I think it would be worth it for the offensive capability he'd gain.

How tall is your player? Inside skills develop faster with taller players (vice versa for shorter players). Train ID until you get 4-5 pops (single pos C) you should get the elastic effect (boost) of training rebounding (2 position C-PF) as it tries to catch up with your improved interior defense. Dont go too high too soon - the salary will increase quickly.
