Noun

conditioning (countable and uncountable, plural conditionings)

The process of modifying a person or animal's behaviour.
Any preparation or training, especially athletic training of the body.
- 2011 September 18, Ben Dirs, “Rugby World Cup 2011: England 41-10 Georgia”, in BBC Sport‎^[1]:
  England's superior conditioning began to show in the final quarter and as the game began to break up, their three-quarters began to stamp their authority on the game. And when Foden went on a mazy run from inside his own 22 and put Ashton in for a long-range try, any threat of an upset was when and truly snuffed out.
The storage of a material specimen under specified temperature, humidity for a specified time prior to testing.
