Magic training from Rukia and others and attitude training from Kenpachi. He would have beaten Grimmjaw and Nnoitra in no time. He probably would have still lost the fight against Ulquiorra but at least it wouldn't have looked so miserable.
The only free time he's had so far was after the sould society arc, and even then he was being "devoured" by his inner hollow and then dragged to his vaizard training
