Goku Post three years training for the androids

[ahill1]

So, as said in the title, do you think Goku has gotten good gains post the three years training? Some people think he didn't change that much due to the mention of a wall and the necessity to surpass SSJ once the androids enter into the escene.

Nothing implies he's gotten any stronger IMO. Earth training isn't the most effective way of training, specially after you've done some special training like training with Kaio or abusing Zenkais under 100G gravity. The fact he sparred with weaklings like Piccolo or Gohan or that no guidebook supports the idea of a power up (In fact, the opposite is implied) supports this.

Plus he's still lumped together with Trunks, who's not implied to have made any gains and the mere idea of him making gains goes against the point of his time traveling.

"The fact that he sparred with weaklings like Piccolo and Gohan"...

The fact that Goku invited Piccolo to train with them, saying he does need someone to spar with him, does support the idea of It being more effective than training alone.

Goku even said that now he has something to "work towards"... What is this "something"? Gaining nothing of strength?

No guidebook need to support It... As It hasn't supported gains in other training sections that there surely was.

He got 1.66x stronger at most IMO.

Because there's hardly anything he can do if he's training alone. By sparring with two partners at once he'll be getting used to fighting both Artificial Humans at once, that is the challenge he expects to face in 3 years. Sparring is certainly more effective than training alone, but sparring doesn't equate power gains.

Working towards defeating the Androids. He also had something to "Work towards" in the 10 years following Boo's death, and we both know he couldn't get any stronger after that.

It has, because there's absolutely zero evidence that Goku has powered up, and guidebooks seem to imply the opposite.

He obviously got stronger over the 3 years, but I think they were minimal gains sparring with Piccolo and Gohan while everyone else played catch up to Goku.

 

[Let's Go Fearless!]

He did get stronger but the gains is similar to what he gained from training from CG to Boo arc which wasn't much.
