Si I'm at Dual 5 back and I've been stuck there for about a month
now.....I was wondering if I would benefit from training Position 5
back and Sound 5 back,if it would improve my dual 5 back score....

Might be, but don't forget that doing them at the same time also gives
a different overhead.

Mmm I see,actually I decided to decrease the time in hopes of training
my reaction time which would then I believe help me break the n-5
barrier.

yeah, i would go down to 2.5seconds.

I am getting mostly 80% on d5b at 2.5seconds.

out of 15games, i might get 1-2 (100%), 1-2 (65-69%), 1-3 (70s) and
the rest 80s and 90s, without starting any games over. The first 3
games are usually lower scores than the rest of my 15 scores.

i would train audio back 6 manual mode--slow the speed down, increase
the trials to 200, close your eyes, and just keep doing it, losing
track, starting over (not the game, just in your head)

i would use two portable versions of brainworkshop--one configured for
audio, one for dnb5, put shortcuts on the desktop or whatever.

i have been 'stuck' on dnb5 for more than a month, so dont fret.


as you increase the speed of dnb5 you will notice that you get ahead
of the game, so when you get a hiccough, you were already ahead one
position so you can usually regain your place--you will see what i
mean after awhile as you improve. i really dont know how to explain
the phenomenon.


presently i am just doing dnb5, not the audio, but i did it for
awhile.

i am not as serious at dnb as i used to be......personally, i will
have achieved my goal if i can get mostly 80s on dnb6


at tht point, i plan on just maintenance.


be well
