The best way to train on Runescape is........
You will always have people telling you the best way to train certain skills! a lot of the time it is a well know way to train and accepted as the best way by many people, does this make it the best way to train?
Scenario
You may well be chopping at a Yew tree, your wood cutting level is 65 and your getting a few logs and xp is going up, a player comes along with a wood cutting cape and tells you that Yews are carp at your level and you should be cutting willows! is he correct?
I will answer that for you, no he is not correct! although it is a fact the xp will go up quicker at willows it does not necessarily mean it is the best way for you to train wood cutting, the best way is the way you want to train! cutting Yews are slow at 65 but if you are happy training there getting your logs and xp then that is a great way, you may want logs for fletching or burning or to sell and make money, you may not want to keep banking your willow logs all the time, you may just want to chop and chat.
I am 90 agility, I train at Brimhaven agility course and have done for most of my agility levels, people often ask me why I am training there, my answer is "I like easy" the times I have been told it is quicker at Ape Atoll or wildy course, it may well be quicker at Ape Atoll but its not better, I find it boring going round in circles aimlessly, I guess that is why I hate Runecrafting, Brimhaven allows me to set a goal of a certain amount of tickets and I can try and beat people to the next ticket machine, this gives me a target and a drive to get there, if you are training with a friend or there is another character in hot pants there is another reason to race around the arena, I have said before and I will say again I would be the same agility level as the people who suggest other places had it not been for Brimhaven.
I am always listing ways to train on my blog posts, these are the ways I find easy, they may not suit you but its often a good idea to try the ways I recommend, have a look at other sites and blogs and try their methods or you can just go and train the way you like, there is no best way to train anything on Runescape, if a player has 99 in any particular skill it doesn't mean they know the best way to train only you can know that.

That said, the answer to the question must still have two parts: 1) What is the activity that gets the most XP in that skill given the player's current level and equipment; 2) How long can the player sustain that activity before getting bored?
In some cases a hybrid of the "best" and the "most desirable" ends up being both. By flipping between two different methods you gain the best of both conditions: much faster XP, and much less boredom.
Also over the years on RuneScape I have learnt that the best way to train is with a freind, someone that you always talk to or a clan so that you build freindships up and can talk about anything rather than do a skill without able to talk to people apart from private chat.
