I need better tactics, better king safety, and better back-rank mate vision. Is there a tactical, king safety, back-rank mate nootropic available?

Cabergoline will make you more tactical. Piracetam more positional and slow. Mirtazapine will make you use your bishops well. Modafinil will help in calculation.

I just started taking turnsignofil. I would never remember to use my turn signal before changing lanes, but now with turnsignofil, I am doing it every time! Only $49.95 for a 30 day supply. Money back guarantee! Visit turnsignofil.com today!

Needs to be used with checkblindspotsofil

The bunny comes through. Thank you!

Uh-oh, the thread's been moved to Off-Topic, the kiss of death...

OP ought to have put "chess" in the title...

Watch, it'll end up being the seven deadly sins or something.

How did I sin by consuming crack? Will I get feeded till I burst? Will I get to pull out 1 Kg of flesh? Will I get to stay half death on a bed for a whole year? Will I...

Wait, if I keep going I might spoil something.

Not interested in the crazy and dangerous pharmaceuticals brought by the OP, but does anyone take any safer OTC supplements they think helps them with chess?

They haven't. He just enjoys having a live cobra bite him on the bottom of his tongue.

Anything that increases blood flow to the head is good for chess.

Same for ZMA.

That was a popular supplement for weight lifters in the 80's? It was supposed to increase strength, maybe by increasing testosterone? Like most of those strength supplements, there was no evidence to support it's use, and it faded away over time. I took it for a while and one thing for sure about that stuff is that it improves sleep! It was a very noticable effect, not just for myself but for other guys I knew who were taking it.

keto is really not that good of an idea...

Your body goes through a system recycling ATP, and if you do keto you essentially starve yourself of carbs but the thing is, you still have FAT that the muscles use for ATP recycling. An average athlete has weeks of energy for a single muscle stored in his fat. I'm sorry buddy, but unless you're quite literally a holocaust victim, as the body also can use proteins from the muscles for ATP recycling too, you're not in ketosis, as ketosis is the body's last ditch attempt.

I really am not in expert in it though that's what I understand. I am on the bodybuilder diet, sh** tons of protein and carbs, and I take gainer which puts on some muscle pounds. I would get bigger than 180 but I do crosstraining with long distance swimming and endurance running.

You do know that it's quite possible for someone to simply measure his blood ketone level to determine whether he's in ketosis?

This is such a complicated topic it is absurd to think you can post a summary of "keto", and have it resemble anything close to the truth. And yeah as mentioned above, it is easy to know if you are in ketosis, and its easy get into ketosis, and many doctors are recommending low carb diets, and really, when you talk about ATP recycling you are showing more about what you don't know than what you know.
