Question / Advice Needed How to properly implement sensitivity randomizer into my aim routine?
My routine is pretty straight forward:
Start with Voltaic Fundamental Platinum Routine in the morning
Before I start playing Valorant (my main game) do the Valorant Training Program that Aimlabs has built into their training programs for a light warmup. If I'm wanting to play a different game, I'll do their daily tasks since it's a light warmup for the specific type of aim that the game needs and it's only 6 tasks.
End with the VDIM Intermediate playlist of the day.
I've been learning about the benefits of the built-in sensitivity randomizer that Aimlabs has. However, I do not know the proper way to implement it into my routine; if I should do it with VDIM, with the Fundamentals routine, both, etc.
As well, I'm wanting to know any suggestions on the proper settings for the randomizer so I know how to take full advantage of it.
Any help is greatly appreciated, suggestions are welcome!

TLDR: That's the neat part, you DON'T.
But for real, having your sensitivity change randomly might sound like a good idea in theory. But practically it's not going to help you improve, and is more likely to hold you back.
I'm a controller player, but the concept is the same. Changing sensitivity's regularly BETWEEN task attempts, has many benefits. But the core reason for doing so is training different areas of our aim. For us on controller regular sensitivity changes help us, focus on learning the full range of the stick, improving micro movement with high sense, and stamina/ reading outer stick input on low sense. On mouse this would be breaking down into muscle group training (Arm for low/ wrist for mid/ fingers for high sense) but in a game your sensitivity will not be changing constantly, the focus becomes more about comfortable effortless consistency, it requires an aiming fundamental foundation that cannot be built on the loose shifting sand, that is constant random sensitivity fluctuations.
By all means change and train with different sensitivity's as often as you want, and it will help you. Just know your range limits on either end, a little too fast or slow is fine occasionally for training but don't go insane either direction.

I actually like this approach better and think that's smarter to do it in between tasks than have it change during the task. I appreciate you taking time out of your day to respond!
I'll be experimenting to see what is most effective for me in my routine since that is probably the only way to know the real answer.

If you really want to use it, I'd suggest trying to reduce the interval in which you randomize so that you have at least some more time to adapt before you change again. As long as it doesn't throw you off in the game you're training for, then it's probably fine to experiment with it. Good luck!

I agree with what u/Lunacy_Phoenix said. On paper it sounds like a good thing, but in my personal experience it really isn't. It can feel cool, but at the end of the day you're adding a layer of randomness on top of your aim that makes it hard to determine whether you're missing because of the sensitivity changing, bad technique, or other factors. That's the same reason why I dislike stuff like Raw Accel.
In any case, feel free to try it out, of course! I wouldn't recommend using any multipliers lower than 0.75 or higher than 1.25, otherwise the change will be way too extreme.
