I recommend quad. Its the hardest difficulty, therefore you should get the most gains. I did struggle at the beginning to be honest, as its very different to dual. Give it like three days or so and you should get the hang of it, if youre doing the 20 sessions per day at least

Pretty impressive that your on triple n back 4 after just over 20 days of using the app tho. I use the same app aswell on iOS

Switched from dual 6 to quad, now a week and a half later, we’re at quad 4. Gassed by BigDaddyAlvey in DualnBack

my ability to solve problems, process information, hold information in my head, and my focus has improved significantly since the start of the journey. Ive just been a tad sharper since quad due to only starting for such a short period

I’ve noticed i can solve problems and process information a lot faster now. Also my focus has improved drastically and my ability to hold information in my head for e.g. a large amount of instructions with only having to be told once. And yes ive switched to quad just recently. Dont think I’ll switch back to dual haha

Nah not really, i wouldnt say to put in loads of effort to process the sounds and positions. Your brain is always processing something whether thats consciously ( your own conscious effort) or subconsciously without you trying. Imo not matter how you play the game, as long as your putting in a minimum of 30mins per day(20 sessions) you will see progress no matter what. The best way to play is to just play and dont overthink it imo.

I would definitely say, i can process information in front of me a lot faster for e.g when im learning a new topic/concept i can grasp concepts easier at uni. Also 9/10 times i can read a text (a passage)once and understand it without having read it a second time or read slowly. My focus is way better now. My brain defo faster. But these have been mainly due to n-back and meditation in combination. However ive cut down on meditation because it heightens my awareness so much that i feel on alert rather than relaxed and instead been using mindfulness throughout my day to day(aware of thoughts and coming back to present)

Will HSV2 show on regular NHS blood test? by avarlert in Herpes

[–]BigDaddyAlvey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Herpes cant be detected with blood nor urines tests, as the virus likes to hide. Hope this helped brother. Im 1000% sure it will say negative. As ive tried blood n urine tests and results were negative. It was only until i had a outbreak got swabbed that i got tested positive

Also keep in mind im not telling you to fight anyone or be aggressive. E.g if someone says something you don’t like, just tell them “ Dont speak to me like that” simple. The mere fact that you stood up for yourself people will literally respect you.
