If you want to understand the concepts in depth go Aagaard. It is an awesome way to get there if you have the money. As far as videos and stuff you can apply quickly to your chess training. As a companion though, it can save you a lot of time and give you more as you work on the positions. If you compare Aagaard's 2 volume attacking video to his books grandmaster's prep: attack and defense and the two volume Attacking Manuel, the video sucks. Are Aagaard's books better at teaching chess calculation and attack? Of course!! you will also take a year to get through them and do a lot of positions before you even get to the point where you know what you should be using practically. As I read the other reviews, I was a little annoyed. I am reserving comment on that course because I have not went through it yet. Grand masters secrets is the next because it truly summarizes all his courses with the exception of his endgame course.

I would not recommend the course Self taught grandmaster because there is not enough information to justify the cost. If you're going to buy any of his courses, the best one is calculate till mate. Usually they are only a few hours long, and a bit over priced.

If you have incorrect thinking habits and start playing blitz – then you train (automate) these wrong behaviours. Let’s look at this situation from another angle. Only then you will be able to use it automatically (e.g. You are in a different situation: you need TO TRAIN the correct thinking process first. They ALREADY have the right system of thinking. Is it useful to sprint if you are preparing for a marathon? The answer is “NO”. You can see that blitz requires a different set of skills. In a long game your strategic understanding matters the most. – In blitz you should use tactical tricks (traps).

– Blitz develops your habit for superficial thinking. – In a long game you should try make THE BEST moves while in blitz you should try NOT TO MAKE BAD MOVES. There is a huge difference between blitz and long games. Therefore you use the things you ALREADY know. When you play a blitz game, you have no time to think. –> Is it useful or harmful to play blitz? I have received a lot of questions about blitz games. I am Chess Teacher Grandmaster Igor Smirnov.
