Right now, these are the things we want to be doing, along with some overarching goals we want to achieve until we reach 400 ELO!

A new beginning…

1000 ELO is an accomplishment the majority of Chess players fail to ever reach, congratulations on making it this far!


We still have a long road ahead of us if we want to reach 2000 ELO though, but let's set our next goal at 1200.


We have a lot to cover in this section, let's begin with some video training!

Our training plan isn't actually going to change a whole lot here, even though we've already reached 1000 ELO. Let's take a look at our updated training plan!

  • Complete video training

  • Play x5 slow games per day against real players

  • Thoroughly analyze each game (20-30 mins)

  • Train puzzles for 60 minutes per day (woodpecker method)

  • Watch 2 speedrun videos per week on your opening

  • Train endgame positions against an engine for 30 minutes per day

  • Play 1 Solitaire Chess game per day (20 mins)

1000 - 1200
