Overview Edit

This is a generic schedule, it's based on the idea of interleaving (learn more), and there are no long term studies about its effectiveness. That said, some members have had a great deal of success with it.

Modes Edit

Microshot is your bread and butter. Microflex is a great way to practice the same skills but shake it up a bit.

Spidershot is useful for mastering the whole screen. Flexshot is a great way to practice the same skills though much harder.

Motionshot is useful for improving tracking. Freetrack is a great way to take it to the next level. Also cry.

Blinkshot is a great way to practice target acquisition and tracking together.

Other modes are very helpful but are more niche in their targeted areas of improvement.

Strategy Edit

We want to maximize our long term improvement. Short term performance gains will be much smaller than can be gotten with block practice. To do this we are going to interleave smaller training sessions with other things and commit to more training sessions per day. A single session could be

3 microshot

3 spidershot

3 motionshot

3 reflexshot

3 blinkshot

Which will take about 15min or so. After which it is recommended to watch some professional footage of your game of choice. Try to dissect 5 minutes or so of that footage. Why were they positioned that way, what might they have been thinking, how did they identify where the enemy was, etc. Focus on answering these types of questions for another 15min or so.

Repeat the above 15min training session schedule. And finally, round out the hour with some yoga or other meditation to help reset and clear your mind. You need to rest your mind or what you've learned will not be retained effectively.

Scheduling Edit

The above hour block can be repeated as often as desired throughout the day however, each additional block will have diminishing returns. Two to three blocks seems to be the sweet spot. Round out any additional time you have for training actually trying to put everything you're learning into practice in-game.
