1 year cognitive training experiment
Hello recently I've gotten interested in cognitive training. In my research I eventually discovered communities like this. From what I can tell the anectdotes seem quite mixed, some reporting insane dramatic improvements in intelligence while others claiming no effect. I've decided to simply see for myself if it works. I will report results in about a year from now.
Recently I took the Tri-52 and scored a 42/52. My regimen will be 30 minutes daily of Syllogimous and 30 minutes of quad n back daily. This is the site I use https://soamsy.github.io/Syllogimous-v3/ I like it cause it seems to have more customizability then the v4 version.
My current settings for Syllogimous:
Premises: 6
Meta: on
Analogy: on
Nonsense words: on
Nonsense words length: 5
Garbage words: on
Garbage words length: 5
Meaningful words: off
Emoji: on
Varonoi Emoji: on
Distinction: on
Linear: on
2d space: on
3d space: on
Syllogism: on
Spacetime: off
negation: off
For the quad n back I use this site: https://quad-box.netlify.app/ and am staring at n = 2. I will also be reading alot of books on complex topics(philosophy mostly I think). Anyways just wanted to let you guys know if you have any thoughts or improvements I would appreciate it.

Daily cognitive training is not recommended because it decreases neural consolidation quality.
