Competitive gamers: 30 min of cardio before gaming is a hidden cheat code.
Study on gamers found:
↑ Reaction time: d = 1.27
↑ Visual memory: d = 1.42
↑ Speed accuracy: d = 1.41
For context, effect sizes > 1.0 are HUGE.

Ganadores el día 15 de diciembre. ¡Suerte a todos!
Too often, people get hardstuck in videogames because they choose to be a victim.
It’s easy to blame your disgusting team.
It’s easy to imagine a matchmaking algorithm that somehow ALWAYS puts 5 mutants on your team.
It’s easy to pretend like reality doesn’t exist: If you were a better player, you would win more games.
It’s easy to offload the responsibility of a loss onto things that do not matter. Things that are not you.
You choose to walk the easy path, yet you’re surprised that it didn’t lead you to your strongest self?
Bear the burden of responsibility because your own improvement depends on it. Make the choice to walk the difficult path. Accept as much accountability as you possibly can, and watch yourself transform into the greatest version that you can ever be.
Shit happens. Loss streaks filled with griefers, boosted players, and AFK’s. It’s ranked, you WILL encounter strings of miserable games.
Take a deep breath and zoom out. At the end of the day, YOU are the only true constant. YOU are the only true variable. YOU are the singularity that determines who your future self will be.
This is your story. Pick up the pen and write. Or don’t, just concede to the randomness of life and accept your fate as a perpetual victim.
At the end of the day, you will be the only one who cares.
