Has anyone here done the woodpecker method?

Has anyone here done the woodpecker method and if so how much did you improve after it?

whats te woodpecker method

What's the woodpecker method? Is it where you eat a Woodpecker before every chess game?

The woodpecker method is a book full of 1100+ tactics. You are supposed to chose a set of tactics (in my case the 762 intermidiate ones) and solve them in 4 weeks. Then you will solve all those tactics again but, in 2 weeks. You keep doing this until you solve them all in 1 day.

wouldn't that just be memorizing the puzzles?

Nope but I've heard it's pretty good.

Aw man. I really just want to eat a bird instead of doing tactics all day...

Kinda. it's supposed to improve your tactical sight IMENSLY and I was wondering if anyone here had tried it

Go on lichess for free, unlimited puzzles

I got the book for free online

Oh lol, I thought it costed money. Remember kids, paying for puzzles is the biggest scam of the century!

Where'd you get it free? I wanna know if it's helpful

I think that the idea is that in real chess games, if you look at a position, you can go, "Hey! This looks like that one position from the book!" and you spot the tactic.

NO. why do that. Jsut get something to reveal a position and you have to find it in a minute. Works better in a game

I think it's this https://www.qualitychess.co.uk/ebooks/WoodpeckerMethod-excerpt.pdf
