Be a Pro X factor ability problem

I'm a sniper playing on left wing. High speed, great shot but I can't seem to upgrade my acceleration or agility consistently. I'll be brief:

• purchased blue wheels to upgrade from gold (must have had full health/energetic via activities to meet 89+ acceleration) which gave me a 5% bonus to stats
• without full health/energetic from activities screen that ability is removed each game as that 5% bonus is what allowed me to make that upgrade
• I currently have all acceleration (agility I'm also in this same position) perks possible
• Is there a way to boost this so that I am not required to train to near max health/energetic after every game?
• Is there a way for me to go back to the gold version of this ability so I'm not constantly having to do an activity to gain health/energetic after every game?
• Is there a build with a weight and size I should have selected for my sniper to be able to not lose this ability every game?

I'm currently 87 accel, 90 agil, 95 speed without the 5% bonus and 91 accel, 94 agil, 99 speed with the bonus (allowing me to use the ability). What should I be doing to fix this for my player?

Please, any advice would be great as this is really annoying. 

*How do people even get the orange abilities for wheels and elite edges on their snipers?
