Not delay training but which skill to work on when
let me put it this way
pretty much finishing off 2 of my players
I will get faster pops by doing OD at 25 and Pass at age 26
in fact as they age, OD becomes near impossible
while passing remains do-able

let's say a 6' 3" player comparison - OD vs Pass
at 25 - 21% to 29%
at 26 - 17% to 23%
at 27 - 13% to 17%

Of course my math has been flawed before
and someone will probably come around and blow holes in it

Now I understand. Is PA the only skill that gets trained faster than other when players age?

Sounds fishy
You say OD pops every 3 weeks at 27 for a player 6'2"?
Documented info at training source shows 13% effectiveness for such players
that would bring you a pop every 6-7 weeks

level 5 trainer
can't imagine that higher level would have made this much of a difference
my 6'5", 25 year old is also going on 4 weeks and might need a 5th

My 6'8" trainee needed 4 weeks for OD when he was 20 while he upped in JR after two weeks of training when he was 23 .. age alone isn't saying too much about training time ;)
