Is training based on the CSD assessment results and training recommendations a guarantee to improvement in my sport?

Training based on science accurately assesses how an athlete should be trained short and long term. 

Although there are no guarantees, evidence suggests that maximizing athleticism can be achieved by identifying target movements and muscles that need to be fine-tuned.
