Training Sites that You Use?

What other chess sites do you use to help you train your chess skills?

Is there a discussion on this already that I have missed? Because I think that having a variety of sites to train on could be beneficial.

Can you please add to this list if you have other ones you go to other than this (chess.com) site. Thanks.

It is against the site rules to mention competing sites to chess.com

What if it is not a "competing" site...what if it does not offer live or correspondence games (just training), would that still be considered "competing" sites?

 The following topics are not allowed in the main public forums or chat rooms:

  • offensive/vulgar language
  • personal attacks
  • religious or political debate
  • spammy/pointless/distracting posts
  • discussion of illegal activities (drugs, etc)
  • advertising competitive sites (don't know what advertising means)
  • cheating

I see. Thanks for the enlightenment.

Yes. Chess.com also offers training.

Ok, well forget about sites, how about software. Anyone here using Fritz to advance their game. Also, is there a way in Fritz to copy all my chess.com games to be analyzed by the coach so that I do not have to play a thousand games with the program to train it. Just starting to learn the programs abilities, and from what I have read it looks like a pretty good program!

Cheers,

I think if "training" is offered here and it is part of the rules then it would seem even software would not be allowed to be discussed as it would compete with the "training" offered by chess.com.

I am not sure I like this rule as it impeeds one's progress and that should be the goal, but it is their site and it is their rules; there are consequences to breaking the rules.
