So I decided to double up focus on hitting. Not many guys actually improved, so now I am wondering. Does doubling up focus double up the effect, or did I just waste part of my training by doing that? Or does it result in just a single focus with the remainder going back into general training?

For the sake of an example lets say 97% of training is dictated by the game and 2% is what your primary focus goes to and 1% is what your secondary focus goes to. Mind you, I just grabbed some numbers there to work with. So if you doubled up on hitting your hitting would get that 3% allotted there. So you wouldn't be wasting it, it just might not show up because no one was ready to pop that skill. That's the way it works in my mind. Of course no one knows what the exact percentages are and Steve isn't going to say. I think the only way focused training has any real impact is to be consistent about your selections. If you are moving them around, you really could just select no focus and accomplish the same thing.
