Well lets think of the times (in the anime of course) where they have trained.
1. Gon in the fourth phase in order to steal Hisoka's tag. Unrelated to fights.
2. The testing gate. Unrelated to fights.
3. Training in Ten, Zetsu, and Ren. He loses a battle, doesn't know how to use Nen very well. After this training he participates in several battles and performs well. No flight from battle.
4. Training before GI arc in order to develop hatsu expression. Unrelated to battle. Need so they can pass the test to enter the game.
5. Training on GI with Bisky. Bisky notices their lack of ability and trains them. Unrelated to battle.
6. Training after Razor. They know beforehand that Genthru will be very hard to beat with their current abilities and injuries. Train a little and formulate a plan to close the strength gap.
7. Training with Kite by fighting the ants. They increase strength with each battle, and do not lose. When Nef appears, having them gain strength instantly would be absurd. Nef killed Kite
as you can see, all they do is waste episodes with training.

you also forgot the :
fight -> barely wins -> critically injured -> bs magical healing power -> fully restored
true dat.
if they're able to recover from such a wound, getting controlled by a dark aura, and going beserk, end up killing most of the ants usually wouldn't be a surprise but rather great action and fun to watch.
