    i’m really enjoying the show and the focus on conceptualize. As someone with aphantasiahia I thought visualization was beyond my grasp so I never really tried. Now seeing… or rather getting better at this skill and I can see the impact on my game and elo improvement.

  • Excellent exercices and resources for adult improvers

    Chess is hard. Solving chess puzzles and problems in your mind? Even harder!

    This podcast really forces you to visualize without looking at a board. Regular tactics puzzles become simple and easy, by comparison.

    Think of it as weightlifting or strengthening exercises for your chess brain. Really helps with visualization and calculation.

    Highly recommended, especially for adult improvers.
