Hello! I have decided to follow a set training plan from month of April. However, I'm puzzled as to how should I go about making the plan. Should it be a Weekly Plan(eg- ...this much Tactics has to be solved per week, ...this much games have to be analysed this week.) Or a daily plan would be better? Please suggest!
Everything about this subject is very individual!
U should train on the things ur a less strong in and make a scedule that fits u personally!
There is no magic answer to this question.Its all individual.
Good luck,though.

Thanks! I have like 8 hours daily from April till December. Do you have some suggestion for books?
It should be a daily plan with goals that extend usually up to 6 months or more.Yoor study has to be on real board.
First decide how many hours a day you have for study(if they are less than 4 you better forget it).Yoru games have to be on real board(If you play against engine you must obviosly play on the board the move that it plays on pc and your move must be obviously played on pc and on the board).You must learn to thnk and calulate on real board.
First decide how many good games against a strong opponent(human or engine) you can play every week(if they are less than 3 , again you better forget it).
Then decide which books you need to study and "finish" then next months.This is very critical."Finish" doesn't mean rushing , means understanding so you might need to read some books even 2or 3 times.
Picking the right books is maybe the most difficult decision.If you are looking for long term improvement(and you should) then you must pick classic books.

Woah...calling someone a troll on a public forum isn't a nice gesture. Perhaps, I think you have a reason to do so... Can you let me know that?
And like jengaia mentioned;it takes alot of time and dedication!
One more advise;(this is NO joke!)stay away from ANYTHING AdamovYuri says!
I dont know what his agenda is,but I know that it is not to help anyone with anything!He is probably just a troll.If u dont know what a "TROLL" is,u should look it up in the Urban Dictionary.
If u have any questions,send me a p.m.
Cheers.

The reason for me to call him a troll is all his posts!Check it out urself and u will see what I mean.
ddmeltzer8 wrote:
Yeah sure! Thanks for your advice!
Please be sceptical about advice u get in forums.Most players posting,dont have ANY clue about what theyre saying!!
The point is that everything about training is personal matter.
Everyone is difrent and learn in a difrent way!
Check out any articles by Jeremy Silman.He has alot to say on this subject.And he knows what hes talking about.Unlike most players comenting in these forums!
Be critical and be careful about generalizing too much!
I dont mind if u send me p.m.
Cheers.

Your study routine should be something that you enjoy, and will improve your game. A few things to take into consideration:
1. How much time a day will you have to study?
2. What are your goals?
3. Keep it fun.

I will disagree with that.
If you have fun , then you are doing something wrong.
Fun is for those that don't have goals.If you have goals you need hard work and determination and forget fun because many times chess study and fun are not related at all.
I completely understand what youre saying, but my advice to the OP still stands. I say that in regard to my assumption that the OP is not going to be a world class player. Also, work can be fun. Who wants to be forced to do something they dont enjoy?

Wow, all this advice, and almost none of it makes sense.
Imagine trying to set up a training schedule for running your first competitive 1500m race. Would you first focus on what you do each day, or would you look at the big picture and work out how many weeks you have to train and then build a training regimen based on that?
Of course, a daily training schedule is useful, but only if that schedule is part of a larger plan.
a suggestion:
if you have for example 50 hours/week split it into units of what you will learn. Like 15 hours/week tactics, 5 openings, 8 hours endgames, 10 hours practical play, 4 hours analyzing games, 8 hours middle game structures and strategy (just as an example, you can split in whatever you want). and then divide it over the days (Monday: 2 units tactics, 2 units endgames, 2 units games etc.)

This guy is only out to promote himself!
And hes not even doing a good job...
If u have SO many followers,why do u always seem to "push" urself??
U seem VERY desperate to get some "customers".
I smell scam!
The guy/gal, is just another version of the membrs chess,coom gets, where they show up, "allude" to how good they are without ever stating anything concrete. They always have a "system" that they promise to divulge, but never do. They run others down, and build themselves up.
Its an old act, that has been way overdone. Just another person with low self esteem that runs to the interwebz to make themselves out to be something they arent.

As ddmeltzer8 correctly said a trianing program is something personal.This is tru not only in chess but in every sport.Athletes that train for the smae sport doing different programs because thir body has different strngth and weaknesses so their program needs to adapt to their body and not the other way around.Still there are things that all do like basic exercises that increase stamina , strength or endurance.
Chess is a sport.Your brain will be better in some things and worst to others.So your program should be adapted.
Yet don't believe you will ever play good chess with excellent endgame technique.Your study must start from books like Dvoretsky's "endgame manual" and Keres "Practical chess endgames".And you must read and re- read them until you are certain that you know them perfectly.Chernev's collections of endgames are also very good books.Start with Capablanca's endgames.
Do not bother with openings at start.If you want to learn more about an opening find the games of a good player that plays it and study them.Try to understand what is the relation of his moves with the middlegame positions that occur.Memorising lines is a mistake many do , don't do it.Studying opening books is a mistake many do , don't do it.
As for middlegame start with the 3 Pachman's books "Complete Chess strategy" because they will give you the basic knowledge you need.In my humble opinion you shouldn't bother with any other middlegame book until you finish Pachman.
Since you have 8 hours a day you must consider playing a game every day.Do not forget to use only long time controls, play always on real board and always analyse them.You need games , lots of them and mostly defeats.Forget the sweet taste of win.Set your engine in a level higher than yours(around 300-400 points higher)and analyse your defeats.Once you start beating it, set the level higher.
Thanks a lot! BTW is Silman's Endgame book good? Because I tend to like the author's style of dictation.
Complete Chess Strategy 1 Planning the Pieces https://www.amazon.in/dp/4871874907/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_gEU4wbVE5MEP9 Is this a good book to kick off the strategic training of my study plan?
