Recently got back into chess tactics training. I highly recommend this site to improve your chess tactics, especially if you’re a beginner or intermediate (who at least has some grasp of how to play). It tracks your progress, and the rating gives you incentive to continue a training session (e.g. ‘I must get over the 1500 hump before I can leave the computer’). For anyone who doesn’t know what tactics are: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chess_tactic For low-level and intermediate-level play, solving a ton of chess tactics problems is generally the fastest way to improve your chess performance. And it’s healthy for chess players of all levels (akin to running for soccer players).
