you're trying to make an absolute yes or no out of a year-long question. not every second of your year is coached. and not every second of your coached time is dictated. so you can set aside x% of time -- particularly in offseason -- as weakness work. strength is not abandoned, it just gets y% instead of 100% of the work. personally i think this is easiest done in the offseason. a XC pace metronome type maybe mixes in more speed work in the offseason. or tries something more like the mid distance in TF, if they do faster paced workouts.
or, to me, and this is subtler, you can emphasize or de-emphasize parts of in-season coached training. maybe you push a smidge harder in some shorter interval work or fartlek that allows for speed work, ease off long stuff.
in soccer terms, if i want to work on my skill, i maybe do skill drills with the ball every morning all summer, around summer league practices and games, strengths get worked on in the usual stuff, the supplement works on weaknesses.
and then if i feel like the coach during regular season gives skill short shrift, i maybe tweak the workouts and do them at different effort or for different purpose than intended. college soccer coach scrimmages us too hard day before games. i reduce effort but emphasize precision execution of skill.
