2 Adult Chess Improvers & 1 Training Plan: week 1

Let’s review the exercices from Week 1! I’m providing Omar & Roberto with a training plan for them to follow strictly until May. We will meet every Thursday to review their journey and reassess. Of course you can have access to the training plan and our video calls. That way you will be part of this journey as well.

  3. Good explanation love the visual perspective 👍

  4. Hi, thanks, HITBOX83 been playing about 6 months, but played a few games in my youth that does not count.. Stuck just under 1000 and hope to reach 1500 – 1600 as I am 40 and think 2000 is unrealistic?

  5. Awesome video Rob. Would have loved to hear more about what order you investigate candidate moves in, and why (how it optimises the process of finding best move). Also, pawn to c6 blocking the check and I’m calling the arbiter!!

  6. In the second game, after Ng3. Black has …c4, with a tempo on white’s queen and shutting down the diagonal for white’s light sq. bishop? Though white has Qa4 after …c4.

    I've been playing for roughly 2years and 4 months.

  13. Excellent video, Robert. I really enjoyed. You are a great teacher.

  14. In the second puzzle, white can actually castle long. I think Roberto thought, that it's an illegal move.

  15. User name Gosmano Hello hello been play for about 12 months brought your Chessable course thanks for what you are doing

  16. Username jbleakley. I’ve been playing chess for about four years. I’m trying to keep up with my kids who joined a school chess club. Thanks for all the help!

  17. That was great, thanks all! Also turns out i didn't do too bad this week which was a relief! One question, i can't seem to put a cross in the roster to show i've completed Week 1? I get a message saying the cells are protected, am i doing something wrong? Thanks.

  18. gecko-1, playing over 1 year. already bought your chessable course!

  19. Anyway to get access to the training plan?…. Have your course and a follower of your YouTube channel. Login: Timmer23, played 2 years. Would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your content.

  20. username – debanjan18, I have been playing chess for almost an year .(since feb 2023)

  21. The training and the corresponding YT videos are just amazing. Thanks for providing us the opportunity to train with you. One thing, it is not possible to track the progress in the Roaster file, because the cells are looked starting row 120. I would appreciate if you can open them, so I can also track my progress there. Thanks!

  22. Thank you for this video, it was like having you here talking to me. I’m going to follow all these lessons for sure. Once again, thank you Robert.

  23. I would like to join this if possible tho I mainly play on lichess? StingyRay1 been playing casually for years but playing more frequently over the past year. Rated around 1150 in rapid

  24. It really depends on how steep the learning curve is. The higher the performance needed, the steeper the curve has to be.

  26. This looks to be a great series… I will be following this for sure!!
