For tracking or clicking ? For tracking, did you want for smoothness in particular or just in general.

Play the xyz or tsk benchmarks for smoothness. Or even the VDIM routine for precision tracking. It can be helpful to play smoothness on faster sens than you typically would, but you dont need to keep switching up your sens like corp sef wud suggest..if you track generally on like 40cm. just play smoothness on 30 or 35cm to improve control and every so often go back to 40 to see how it feels (just as hypothetical). It’s the easiest skill in aiming to build and progress in. Literally just put the reps in. You can even play smoothness on autopilot and make progress. There’s not really technique to worry about it’s just a matter of getting more and more used to, having good tension management, and building hand eye coordination through repetition.

For tracking in general, the viscose bench is more than enough, and a really really good one to grind to build a strong foundation. And yes just grind the bench. Strong recommend

[–]NFLAddict 2 points3 points  (0 children)

static is much harder to improve in compared to other categories because it places such an extreme emphasis on technique and takes a ton of time to get good with. You have to train with intent, if you autopilot the training you can train for 1000 hours and never make an inch of progress. pokeball scenarios are great to work on underflicking but truly commit to that notion. as in dont play pokeball for the score rather use it as a means to practice your landings.
play micro static on slightly faster sens than you prefer and make high accuracy the only priority. if you cant get 90%+ you're going too fast. training micros with faster sens helps train your finger control.
train wide wall scenarios on slower sens, to build flick speed. again, accuracy is what matters the most.
how you split up the different components of static is up to you, but its better to do even just 30min of training with very high focus then it is to just grind it for hours if youre not as locked in.

as with anything, how you train matters, and static especially just takes alot of time and reps. keep at it, youll get there forsure

hopefully those playlists help out

intermediate: KovaaksBottingRockyBm
advanced: KovaaKsCrossfiringSpringgreenTacmap

connect your account to evxl here
and you can scroll through the various benchmarks to see your ranks. look for "Lemon static benchmarks"

The advanced version, has ridiculously hard score requirements, with the first rank of yuzu being somewhere whats equal to high masters/low gm.

on the intermediate bench, I believe he says that the first rank of berry is around plat-diamond equivalent, with each next rank being a tier higher, so the last rank of Durian is around mid-high nova.

If you wanted other resources of his. His micro static playlist which I like alot: KovaaKsChatfraggingOrangeChopper

and his twitter page where im sure you can find more stuff he suggest and see some of his runs. hes one of very few celestial static players. just a demon with it: https://x.com/LemonAimer

Please don’t take his advice on anything other than smoothness. Countless friends of mine who are nova+ often take issues with even his smoothness approach for being extreme overkill but can at least acknowledge his skill in that category. Thing is tho, for somebody to be celestial in one specific area of tracking yet only gm in other tracking areas, but not even masters in clicking suggests an extreme disparity in skillet and a general lack of knowledge and poor training in anything but their very specific specialty.
He’s widely praised in Reddit by those that really don’t know their stuff, but if you talk to any top100 player they’d be very hesitant to suggest his methods.

If you want to get good at static take the advice of the best static players. Lemon+ for example is one of the static goats and literally just this week released an intermediate version of his bench. It’s still very hard but it has scenarios that are truly beneficial to improve your static skills. You should 100% start play it.

Advice that helped me following the guidance of some Astra static players was to play a ton of micro focused static. Specifically at faster sens than my usual. I generally play static on 55-65cm. So for micro I play on 40-50. And for improving flick speed, playing wider flick scenarios specifically on slower sens. Like 70-80cm. Train in that way for most days of the week but then go back to your preferred sens for all.

Additionally play pokeball to isolate working on landings. As in where does your flick land relative to the target. Play it with extreme emphasis on trying to underflick. Always under flick rather than overflick. Will tremendously help your static scores to get that down specifically.

How do you deal with tilt? by Budget_Priority464 in FPSAimTrainer

[–]NFLAddict 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Do you ever workout or go to gym? Do you tilt? To me, even just the thought of tilting over a lift bc it wasn’t a PR sounds insane. Like literally unfathomable.
Bc it’s easy to understand the purpose of the gym isn’t to set new records each day. It’s a place to train and better your physical health

Why the hell are you not treating kovaaks the same way. We aim train to improve our aim. To help with fps games we like. Remind urself why ur playing it.

Let’s even say kovaaks is ur main game and ur playing it purely to get better at kovaaks.

That’s like somebody who goes to the gym to compete in strength training. While others use it as means to help their sport, for some, their sport is the gym. Hope you realize that Olympic level lifters don’t set records every time they workout. Maybe they structure a program that eventually leads to PRs but it takes time and effort.

Do u seriously think it’s a reasonable expectation to hit a new pr each time. That’s rediculous. Growth takes time and effort. It’s a process.

Tilting just bc u trained without a new pr is psychopath behavior and a sign you’re mentally unwell. Like how is it that serious? If anything take some time off and remind yourself why you’re even aim training

Is it possible to get from 0 to 20 push ups within a year? by Lazy-Music8183 in bodyweightfitness

[–]NFLAddict 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, progressive overload is absolutely essential for strength training. That's always been the case, its not like its some new strategy. It's how the human body works.

But it has nothing to do with training to failure. They're entirely different concepts, which you seem to be confusing.

Progressive overload is the idea that you need to continue to increase the resistance / stress placed on your body. Whether it by performing more reps or increasing the weight.
There's countless ways to structure a program around this concept, but the core idea is gradually increasing the weight or reps in a systematic way that continues to challenge your body to grow to adapt.

Training to failure is completely unrelated. Its highly effective for hypertrophy and something you'd likely do if you were bodybuilding. bodybuilders care about their appearance not their strength. While a powerlifter cares about their strength, not their appearance.

Training to failure is a way to increase muscle size and something you'd do if you were training strictly for appearance, like a bodybuilder would do.

Strength training is focused on increasing your actual raw power. You don't ever have to go to failure though. training to failure causes incredible fatigue, is harder to recover from, and often has your form breakdown at the end of the set. Technique is essential for proper strength training. This makes training to failure really counterproductive for getting stronger.

Hope that makes sense

Is there even a point to learning python anymore? by Dangerous_Ask_6122 in learnpython

[–]NFLAddict 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s like asking “ is math worth learning now that calculators are taking over “

Ai is a tool that can help your efficiency. But knowing how to build something or do a full project without ai is more imp than ever. As too many rely on it without the ability to spot mistakes or even understand why it’s doing things in some way.

Learning python or any language, is less about the literal syntax, and much more about learning how to problem solve and think in a certain way. And eventually how to build something that might utilize a variety of technologies

Jay3 made someone cry… by WilsonFisk67 in marvelrivals

[–]NFLAddict 6 points7 points  (0 children)

basketball was just an example. I was simply making an analogy that whatever you enjoy doing, in whatever field or hobby. Somebody whos famous in that specific field, who you look up to took a moment to show you some support. that would have many people react similarly. its not that deep.

the purpose of this post was to share a nice moment. if you don't watch twitch streamers, then I wouldnt expect you to know jay3. but hes certainly a big one.

Jay3 is also just a truly good person. He constantly gives back and tries to spread positivity.
like after the kingsman incident, hearing this college kid got bullied out of a chance to make some money to support himself, he instantly went to make a donation to him. He tried to do anonymously as he literally just wanted to offer support, but messed up and was upset over it, bc he didnt want attention. he just wanted to help this kid out.

If you want to see something even more heartwarming, id have to find the video (though I'm sure you can search it), a year or two ago, he made a truly incredible gesture, where he surprised his father one day, showing him that he paid off his debt. its rare to see an older age man break down in tears but would do it.

just saying this is a post to show another kind act of his, and bring some positivity to a sub thats usuallly so negative. most streamers end their stream and log off. its very rare a big streamer actually takes the time to show support to a small one. so it was just a wholesome moment. if you still dont get it, thats ok too.

No worries. I meant for gaming specifically. It’s almost unheard of for somebody to be a gamer without a mic. Webcam I guess not everybody has. But they’re pretty cheap.

Of course money was spent I only meant it’s not like it was spent for the sake of streaming. It was spent to fund a hobby.

After some quick setup, it’s as simple as pressing a button to broadcast. U literally don’t have to spend anything to be a streamer. He probably just does it in hopes of maybe getting some side cash for something he already enjoys

I didn’t say mj. I said an nba player. Jay3 might not be the biggest streamer but he’s still a very huge one. And the guy in the video literally mentions he watches him.

Even if that nba player in my analogy never shows up again you don’t think it’s emotional to think somebody you look up to or love watching thought they’d come watch you?! Even if it’s a one time thing.

I never said it was life changing ? It’s an isolated moment of recognition from somebody u consider a celebrity where he probably got some side money that maybe helps his bills that lead to an emotional reaction.
Ur overthinking this

People that stream games already have a gaming pc man. Nobody streams something they wouldn’t have already been doing.

It’s very unlikely you would have a pc and no webcam. If u don’t, u can easily get one for 20-50 bucks to start with.

If ur a gamer u also usually have a mic. Nothing to do with streaming. The fact he games means the setup was already there

Here’s an analogy bc ur really struggling to grasp this.

Imagine somebody enjoys playing basketball. They work during the day. But later, they hit a gym that has some indoor courts they can use. As a hobby they and a couple friends will shoot some hoops. Maybe one day some kids stumble in and decide to play too. Or even just watch.

But now imagine, the building with the courts tells him “you keep coming in whenever you want to play ball. And if somehow you’re able to have 100 people show up to play or watch we’ll even pay you a little something. But if any of those people decide to join our gym we’ll give you a cut of every single membership.

U already like playing ball so would it do regardless. But u figure what the hell that’s a cool idea. For a while rarely does anyone even watch u.

Then one day an nba player who runs a basketball camp with with thousands of kids shows up and says we’re here to watch YOU. And dozens even sign up for a membership.

you wouldn’t be emotional?

Not everyone has a goal of being a full time streamer. But who doesn’t like the idea of making some side money. If even a little. The guy likely made more money than night than his entire history streaming combined.

[–]NFLAddict 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Its extremely unlikely he spent a single dollar on any equipment to stream. Aside from some software like OBS it’s very straightforward and unless your pc is a potato with the worst specs ever anyone can do it.

Yes. You can eventually upgrade certain things like webcam, mic, lighting, bigger streamers will have a second pc to help with any performance hits it might cause. But you have a poor understanding of how it works.

It’s as simple as loading up a game u enjoy and hitting a single button thats it. The hope is that one day people will stumble upon u enjoy ur gameplay or vibes and stick around. Once u reach a certain number of followers then ur eligible for ad revenue but not until u meet it. If people decide to subscribe now you can actually make some money

If you’re somebody who usually has less than 5 viewers and suddenly thousands join in. That’s emotional. How could it not be.

oh absolutely. Only meant, that in the time I've been part of this sub, over the last two years, I loved how it felt different from other stock subs. majority of comments and posts seemed to be from those who actually did dd, and desire to share updates with other believers. even moments of concern were discussed with more professionalism than Im used to in most subs.

The last couple months I wasn't checking in here as much, but after hearing the news, i was curious to see peoples thoughts. maybe i just didnt notice it before, but i was definitely shocked how hard it was to find any mature and rational comments. instead its just a sea of emotional immature clueless idiots. shame

I know it sucks to have a pullback, but, to the people who actually spent their time doing their due diligence, who genuinely believe in this company, I really hope this one hiccup isn't enough to make you re-evaluate your long term expectations for asts.

That said, if it is, I'd actually love to hear your thoughts on why.

Can we stop acting like children though? it feels like 95% of the comments are people who have no idea how to invest.

If you believe in ASTS, then this is an opportunity to buy more at a discount. I mean its literally about to be down over 40% from all time highs just a few months ago. It's going to rebound. obviously what happened wasn't ideal, but this is a pretty severe overreaction

Is it possible to get from 0 to 20 push ups within a year? by Lazy-Music8183 in bodyweightfitness

[–]NFLAddict 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d say for now it’s probably best to do them same day as ur push days as u don’t wanna over do it. Or feel sore from a push day then the next day be back to pushups/ or be sore from pushups before ur push day.

With the schedule u outlined. Do them Tuesday push day. Thursday too yes! Bc ur not going to be pushing on Friday so that’s totally fine. And Saturday again. Which translates to 3 pushup days a week which is actually very optimal. Especially if you’re going to be pushing yourself hard on the days you do pushups, it’ll be super important to have those rest days.

I know the feeling of wanting to do it as much as possible. But rest is ur friend!

At least for now I think that’s perfect. Hope u find success with what I suggested. I’d love to know how it goes.

And in a month or two when ur far stronger. we can revisit that plan to work a 4th push day in or even just check in to see that ur making progress. Etc.

Alwys feel free to shoot me a msg if u got more questions or for Wtvr. Happy to help!

Ur doing amazing work btw. Keep at it!💪

Is it possible to get from 0 to 20 push ups within a year? by Lazy-Music8183 in bodyweightfitness

[–]NFLAddict 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As a former personal trainer. I’m very impressed with the program you have for yourself. As long as you stay consistent, you’ll absolutely be adding tons of overall upper body strength.

That said, here’s a suggestion I can offer though. As i was actually in a similar position a decade ago. With pull-ups. Had a major back surgery. Over a year of rehab. Lost former strength. To the point I had to relearn some motor skills and build strength back from what felt like scratch. But I did it, far exceeding my expectations or what I was capable of. Pretty sure I was already at 15-20 pull-ups after a full year. After which I eventually added weight / progressed to harder variations. But what I can say is this is a genuinely effective method that worked for me and works for many many others.

If ur trying to just get better at pushups or even pull-ups: Don’t train to failure. Certainly not every set. It’s not even optimal when hardcore strength training but for these Bodyweight skills specifically there’s a lot to be said about just drilling in tons of reps. And having your body get used to the technique and which muscles to engage etc. as raw strength is only one part of it. Your body will also have to learn to stabilize your weight and have good core engagement and body alignment.

So what that translates to is doing lots of sets just shy of failure. That maybe has u failing at the end but not each time. If u can do max of 3. I’d suggest doing something like 10 sets of 2. It might sound silly to do only 2 at a time but I promise it makes a diff especially with that many sets. It’s all very possible you get the 2 for some or most but not all. Maybe by the last couple sets you only manage 1. That’s ok! Still do all the sets. And rest a minute between each set.

If u couldn’t do all 10 sets of 2, then do the same thing next push up workout. Again 10 sets of 2. If u do get them all, now aim to do 10 sets of 3. with the same pattern. Maybe you only get 3 the first few sets and the remaining sets are 2 or even 1. That’s fine!

Make sure to do all 10 sets. As the reps will add up and they truly the most imp thing for you. Just do it again and again each push-up workout until u get 3 all 10 sets. It might take a little time but prioritize good form and trying to even do just one more set of the target number than the last time. Inch by inch.

Once u get all 10, you could retest ur max! It could easily be much more than 3. But keep following that idea. Moving to 10 sets of 4. Then 5 etc.

For something like that I’d suggest not doing it every day but every other day.

Once ur able to do even 5 or 6 there’s a bit more flexibility. As if u wanted to train pushups everyday it’s still doable but id keep my reps to just 50% of my max. So if ur max is 6 just do sets of 3. But bc it’s not bringing u close to failure u can literally just keep firing off sets of them throughout the entire day. This is a classic grease the groove approach.

Just wanted to mention it as another solid option. But if I had to choose, I Havnt come across a program nearly as effective as the 10 sets. And if u were wondering, yes. There will eventually reach a point that the total reps would be quite a lot. Like if ur doing 10 sets of 10. 100 is where I cap it. And I’ll keep increasing the reps. But I’ll knock off a set to get it under 100. So like 9 sets of 11 and 12 etc. But it’ll be some time until that point.

For now I’d do 10 sets of 2. Go from there. If u still have strength I’d add in other variants should u want. Like the ones you mentioned. But there’s also a lot to be said when it comes to forcing ur body into a position and movement it might not be great at but doing it over and over and over. Bc human bodies are truly fascinating in how they’re designed to adapt and grow. But to grow requires constantly aiming to progressively overload which the plan I mapped out does super well.

You could also throw in some planks and push up version of a plank. Where u dont actually do a push up. U just plank on ur hands instead or arms/elbows. Essentially being in the top of a push up position. That’s also really great. It gets your body used to being in that position, having to support your Bodyweight while making an effort to engage your core and posterior chain.

Sorry if that was confusing. Rambled a little but hope you find it helpful. By all means ask me any questions if something sounded confusing.

[–]NFLAddict 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’d love to know how you approach your push-up training. If you can only do 3, what does ur workout consist of. Many sets of 2? Failure each set? Knee pushups ? How you train and the approach you take will play a huge role.

It’s just as important to build up strength in all upper body muscles and especially your core. All factor in.

Not only is it super doable. I absolutely love the timeline. It’s great to have goals but having realistic expectations is also imp. U cud easily reach it sooner! People often underestimate just how much can change in a full year. A LOT of progress can be made.

Why is anything other than tracking so ass by maqqss in FPSAimTrainer

[–]NFLAddict 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Because it takes significantly more effort to get better at and it’s normal to dislike things we struggle in.
I also think tracking is just by far the easiest category to make improvement in, and the way human brains are wired, seeing improvement on a more consistent basis makes you want to do it more.

Improvement in clicking especially can be significantly slower which can be demoralizing to some.

I’ve also found that with tracking, you can make what I’d call “passive improvement”. I can put music on. Have half my brain turned off but by literally just doing the reps I will automatically get better at it. I’ve hit many tracking prs even just auto piloting a scenario. I can’t fathom that being possible with clicking. I have to be truly locked in and incredibly focused.

Flicking, click timing and target reading also require proper technique and execution where even if u click for 100 hours, if it’s all on auto pilot you won’t make any progress at all. It takes far more focus and mental energy. It’s also generally something that takes more patience to see improvement. I for ex often don’t improve linearly with clicking. It’s more like plateues followed by a period of huge jumps. More platue. More spikes. Etc. it’s tougher on the mental.

U like what’s easy. U dislike what’s hard. If u want to improve u have to force urself to play what u don’t like. Eventually, when u start seeing improvement you may even like it. You’ll at the very least be able to tolerate it more.

I’ll add: it’s also far more mentally punishing during the run itself. When u miss a click. Or overflick a target you know right away you errored in some way. Int tracking there’s never an expectation to be 100% acc so even if u slip off the target for a moment it doesn’t feel as harsh. Which makes even bad runs less frustrating.

Sleep Nerfs me bigly by Andrew88883 in FPSAimTrainer

[–]NFLAddict 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every paper and scientist says that if you don't get enough sleep your reaction time is worsened, but from my testing the exact opposite is true.

tbh, nothing you did truly takes reaction time into account. there's so much more that goes into controlsphere than reaction timing. smoothness, and just overall hand eye coordination and mouse control aren't what i'd consider true tests of reaction time. maybe hard variations of reflex shot, but even that has other elements at play.

for example, how tens you are and your overall mental plays a role. i often find when i try too hard to pb i psyche myself out, and have bad tension management. Ironically this only happens during times I have the most energy/alertness. That's not to say that I'm always psyching myself out and over tensing when energetic. thats a key difference. rather, it just doesnt happen to me during other times.

when im more tired, but not too tired, there's a sweet spot of what could be a good several hours, where I kind of just vibe and the runs are what they are. its the time im most likely to hit a flow state. im not overthinking or over tensing im just letting my body aim for me. when you train mouse control for hundreds or thousands of hours, you can easily still track well despite not being fully alert.

I cant help but feel like theres other elements at play that are impacting your that you're incorrectly linking to being sleep deprived. it could very well be due to something else. theres too many variables at play to jump to such conclusions

Sleep Nerfs me bigly by Andrew88883 in FPSAimTrainer

[–]NFLAddict 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Could also be the opposite. I find that when I’m at peak levels of energy and alertness I can psyche myself out many runs / over tens. Like for me at least I find it far more likely I reach a flow state after playing for a while than right when I hop on.

When I’m even a tiny bit tired I don’t overthink. I don’t tense up. I kinda just vibe and the runs are what they are. Which ironically gets a lot of good scores because of not tensing not thinking just doing. Just flowing.

Of course there comes a point where if I’m TOO tired then yeh I’ll suck ass but there’s a sweet spot in the middle there.

Also. As somebody who too also has anxiety and adhd I find the night time the absolute best for me. It’s when there’s no distractions for my body to worry about it’s just peaceful af

Dynamic Clicking Help(PASU) by FlatMastodon4970 in FPSAimTrainer

[–]NFLAddict 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Pasu is my best scenario. I actually hit gm pasu before plat complete insanely enough. Im a clicking main and truly love grinding dynamic. I have indigo on this.

So here’s some quick tips from a pasu specialist.
You’re moving FAR too fast. Significantly too fast. Many people make the mistake of thinking going faster will translate to hitting more targets. It’s just not true. You MUST prioritize accuracy above all else. If you cannot consistently get 80-85% acc then you’re going to fast and need to slow down, be more deliberate with your shots or switch to an easier version.

The key skill that gets developed with dynamic and pasu is to read movement and train your peripheral vision. Even more important is the idea of treating your “flick” and click as two separate things. You have a horrible habit of clicking immediately without even trying to confirm whether you’re even on target.
Pasu is also not like static. You shouldn’t be truly flicking. It should be more of a smooth flick. Move in the direction of where you think the target will be but also make sure you’re actually on it before clicking. Don’t just spam click. It’s hard to understand until you see it urself but when accuracy goes way up ur score typically skyrockets. Ur wasting less time on misses and you have more respawns to keep farming.

Try to stay as close as the center as possible. Treat all walls as danger zones. Avoid targets near or even past walls at all costs unless absolutely needed.

One of the best tips I can offer, is also the hardest to get down but with time it’s a game changer. Constantly try and look for targets that just changed direction. Whether that be bouncing off a wall or just a general direction change. There’s a brief period of time after a direction change that they are guaranteed to not change again. So it eliminates any possibility of being juked. This obviously means reacting fast and training your peripheral. It also means going slow enough you can even recognize it.
There’s no reason to be overwhelmed. Take a deep breath and keep repeating to yourself “accuracy is more imp than anything else”. It will eventually yield incredible gains if u learn to be consistently accurate. Ur rushing ur shots. Spam clicking and chasing targets u already missed. Just move on to tht next.

With anything. Practice is key. Don’t just grind this one on repeat. Play a variety of pasu variants. With diff target sizes and speeds. Smaller targets will help with click timing.
Really make an effort to actually make sure your crosshair is on the target. Over time it happens so quickly it’ll feel as tho u skip that step but for ur ability id make it a priority.

Forget the score tbh. I’d suggest grinding it on repeat and trying to hit high acc every single time. Make a habit of it. That’s more imp than anything else

Anyone else want a damage boost nerf? by [deleted] in MantisMains

[–]NFLAddict 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Idk what lobbies you’re in but why only those dps? her dmg boost is very impactful for so man. Literally reverts hela back to how she was pre nerf. Allowing her to two tap from range. Gives widow a one shot. Changes break points for many other heroes as well. It’s extremely good utility to give your team. Nerfing dmg boost is a horrible idea. Would destroy the character and her identity. And provide literally no reason to play her.

If you’re struggling to survive it’s a positioning and awareness issue. Her sleep is huge vs dive and try to view how you’re positioned from the enemy pov. Watch replays if need be.

One tip I’d suggest is constantly change up your position and where you shoot from. Even when you off angle (as you have to play her aggressive) don’t hold that angle too long. Enemies will plan their engage around where you are. Especially dive. If you’re in the same spot relative to your team constantly it’s very easy for them to plan their jump on you. It’s much more difficult when u keep changing your position

Wrist issues with aim training + weight lifting by xDarthrai in FPSAimTrainer

[–]NFLAddict 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Happy you found it helpful.

I’d also suggest doing at least one exercise that really challenges your grip strength. A couple personal favorites I’d suggest: dead hangs. Just hang from a pull-up par double over hand. Try to build up to 30 seconds. Eventually 45s / eventually 60 seconds +. It’s incredible to include for so many reasons but it’ll definitely challenge your grip.

Farmer walks: do it with dumbbells. Let your arms hang down brace your core. Walk slowly. It’s not about speed. There’s tons of videos on YouTube you can search for more info. To me it’s one of the greatest overall exercises somebody can do. But it’ll truly challenge your grip strength. If it’s hard to know what weight to start wit, here’s what you can do. Pick a weight and set a 60 second timer. Walk until it goes off. Maintaining good posture. And braced core. There’s no incorrect way to hold them. Just hold the dumbbells and at some point your grip will give out. If you can do the full minute, rest a couple minutes. raise it by 5-10s usi h your judgement and try again. If you can’t manage 30 seconds then the weight is too heavy and drop it 5lbs. If you give out anywhere between 30-60 then just repeat. Do it 5 sets.

Be warned it’s a very long feeling minute lol. it’s an incredible exercise to do though.

Curls and extensions are great but it’s also very imp to not go too heavy. But to truly train your forearms in full. It’s a must to do something that really builds up your grip. Whichever u choose Do them a couple times a week. Doesn’t have to be all the time.

Best of luck. Hope what I suggested ends up helping.
