I know exponential doesn't mean random, it means there is no value assigned to a certain component. If there is no value assigned to 47 minutes and no value assigned to 20 minutes, then how are you guaranteed to get better training for 47min than 20 min? Seems that would automatically make the amount of training you got for each number random since there is no vaue assigned to either. I could be wrong, but this is how I take it.

You are free to interpret it however you want, but I would ask yourself how this interpretation makes any logical sense?

I never said it made any sense. It makes perfect sense that 47 minutes training would get better training than 20 minutes. But I've got to ask you, if there is no assigned value to either 47 minutes or 20 minutes, then how does one get a higher value than the other?

What you're saying, and you could be correct I'm not debating that at all, is that there is actually an assigned value to 47 minutes and 20 minutes? I think there would have to be assigned values to each number if one is guaranteed to get more training than the other.

What is the exact meaning to the word exponential?

Just learn math guys :) u will know what exponential means :) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_function xD :).U probably wont get it but 47 min is way better then 20 mins...and u should train 6 players :) let that two with 47

Science Dictionary

exponential (ěk'spə-něn'shəl) Pronunciation Key
Relating to a mathematical expression containing one or more exponents. ◇ Something is said to increase or decrease exponentially if its rate of change must be expressed using exponents. A graph of such a rate would appear not as a straight line, but as a curve that continually becomes steeper or shallower.

So I'm guessing that the loss of training minutes will multiply
with each missed minute.
Thus 47 not so bad
46 worse by a multiple and so on and so on...
So that 44 minutes is plenty worse than 47

Can someone please tell me I'm ok or way off base on this

All that it means is that the training return rises much faster close to 48 minutes so that 47 minutes may be 90% of 48 minutes, 46 minutes may be 80%. If you have a spreadsheet, you can model it easily enough. Just use exp(x). It's just the rate of dropoff that's not really known. There are most definitely values associated with every point.
