I have a 5'9. Trains stupidly fast.

Popped in JS 4 times in 5 weeks.

21 years old.


BIG time elastic effect though probably had a lot to do with that. JS started at mediocre and OD was already at tremendous while passing was at strong and ballhandling at prominent.

What level trainer?

I wish there were pigmen. You get a few of these pigmen walking around I'm looking a whole lot better. Then if somebody wants to fix me up at least they could say, Hey he's no pig-man!

I don't buy this. At 6 ft 6, in 6 weeks, you'd be fortunate to get 2 pops in OD out of him. 3 would be near impossible


This is just flat out wrong. I know because I have been training 6'6"-6'7" guys my entire BB career, height doesn't make that big of a difference. 1 OD in 2 weeks is standard for an 18 or 19 year old. At times I've had 2 OD pops in 3 weeks. Of course I've always had level 6 trainers too so maybe that had something to do with it.


Actuallly, its not flat out wrong. Its well known that height does make a big difference. My point to objecting to what he said, now I am objecting to what you are saying is that you are conveying the wrong message to our community, especially new users. Then we get people complaining because their players aren't training as fast as guys like you said they would.

The variable in this instance, for both you, and BossOfBosses is that you have level 6 trainers. I assumed he had a "normal" advanced level trainer (my fault for not asking, and just asssuming he had a level 4 trainer).

So indeed, if you pay the money for the level 6 or level 7 trainers, it absolutely changes the time frame on pops. However, if you are like the average user, and have a 6ft 7 player, with a level 4 trainer, its very normal to see it take up to 4 weeks to get an OD pop for instance, training pressure.

I was just stating my experience with training..


And again, your experience is using a level 6 trainer...big difference.

I trained a 6 ft 6 guy for while (Rustines Bruzgys) and he was considerably slower than my other guards were 6 ft and 6ft 1. They popped like clock work every 3 weeks, he was 4-5 weeks between pops.

My son is currently training a 6 ft 7 guy and also has a level 4 trainer....His last 3 pops in Pressure training have taken 4, 3, and 5 weeks.

If that is the case then I'm glad I never listened to all of those people giving advice on the help forum who always say that level 4 trainers are almost as good as level 5 and 6. In fact your experience makes me want to upgrade to a level 7 trainer

Just curious how fast have your short guys like Onkol (5'10") popped in comparison? I remember when you were trying to sell him to me he had like 4 OD but now he is getting heavy playing time on your team.


I will bb mail you the answer on Onkol...but lets just say I have nick named him "Popcorn". That said, what I have read lately conerning level 6 and 7 trainers, and as fast as my midgets are poppping, i am rethinking the value and possible benefit of upgrading my trainer. Sounds like you arent too much slower with a level 6 trainer on tall players, so I can only imagine how much Onkol would benefit from a Level 6 trainer.
