If you’re a beginner or someone stuck at a rating plateau and unsure how to improve, this training method might help. The tricky part is staying committed and following through. Start by playing unrated, untimed games, preferably against a bot, for one or two weeks, one game per day. Bots are ideal for this type of practice. Annotate every move you make, writing down your thoughts. This trains your brain to truly “think chess.” It’s challenging, time-consuming, and mentally exhausting, but remember, it’s training, and training is tough. Stay disciplined, move by move, noting what you see on the board, your ideas for the next move, and any threats. From your very first move, record the opening you plan to play just write down everything. After a week or two, mistakes and blunders will decrease, tactics will come more naturally, and positions will feel clearer. You’ll manage time better, and the habit will start to feel automatic. Soon, you won’t need to write it all down, your brain will process it internally. That’s the plan: stick with it for a week or more, playing one game each day.

First, I recommend playing games with longer time controls. With confirm move on. Daily games are great for this exercise. Second, ask yourself three questions during each move, and jot them down on a notepad if needed. 1-If your opponent could move right now, where do you think they would go? (CCT) Choose two moves you believe they would make. 2- Choose three moves to counter their actions. Select the one that is both safer and more forcing. (CCT) 3 - Make your choice, then ask yourself: what did I leave hanging? If you write this down in a notebook and follow it for every move, you'll play much better. The key is to keep doing it consistently for each move. Over many games, really, a lot, it will become a habit. Once you reach that point, start shortening your time control until you're playing at the pace you want. After each game, try analyzing it on your own without using an engine, and jot down your thoughts during key moments. This can be really helpful. Then, turn on the engine to review and check your analysis. Hopefully, that will help you play much better, but it will take discipline to make it happen.

Has anyone tried this site? I was looking to learn positional chess training, and it seems like I’ve found the right place. I’m curious if others have used it and what their thoughts are.

I just beat a 2k player on Chess.com!!! Highest victory ever! It was an unrated game but still! His piece movement was really good near the end but I had to defend. I sealed the game with a Skewer! I did miss a few idea's earlier on. https://www.chess.com/analysis/game/live/174443233862/
