Fighter's weapon training says "A fighter also adds this bonus to any combat maneuver checks made with weapons from his group. This bonus also applies to the fighter’s Combat Maneuver Defense when defending against disarm and sunder attempts made against weapons from this group."

So I assumed you could only add the weapon training bonus to CMD if you were attacked by a weapon in your weapon group, but down in the advanced weapon training for Combat Maneuver Defense it says : "When the fighter is wielding weapons from the associated weapon group, his weapon training bonus applies to his CMD against all combat maneuvers attempted against him, instead of just against disarm and sunder combat maneuvers."

So do you add the weapon training to CMD if you are Wielding your weapon on being attacked by it?

For Weapon Specialist, could I then retrain the feats I picked for other feats and basically use weapon specialist as a place holder for weapon focus/specialization.
