Chess Journeys: Tales of Adult Improvement

This week on Chess Journeys, I spoke with Joel. He’s a dedicated adult improver and father of four, so time is limited and precious. We talked about a wide variety of topics such as the importance of actually playing chess, even if it is just blitz. Joel shared his favorite resources, his study methods, and his reasons for employing a coach. Joel has spent a lot of time on tactics, reaching a 3000 chess dot com puzzle rating! Joel also uses Chessable extensively. His streak is at 1489! Be sure to check out his Youtube videos at: https://www.youtube.com/c/DadLifeChess.
