Month 6:
OK PEOPLE: 1 more ZBLL and then I will be finished with U ZBLL!! I literally just learned one, but because it's early and the one that I just learned was really easy, I do believe that this will be the last day that I will be learning algs for this case! I just feel like there is so much that I can accomplish while learning ZBLL. I have actually gotten quite a few good solves with 5x5 because of some forced EO into a U ZB. My averages have also been going down quite drastically. I now average around 9.3 to 9.4, but with some more deliberate F2L practice, I think that I will get down to Sub-9 within 3-4 months.
The deliberate practice i=that I have been doing consist of F2L practice and a lot of LSLL (Last-Slot + Last-Layer). I have actual;ly noticed that my solves are much better after starting my sessions with LSLL practice. I have realized that it actually helps me drop my times by about .3 during the first 30 minutes of my session. After that, the times will go up by a fraction of the amount that it dropped, but, I believe that this type of practice will really help me on my journey to Sub-9 and getting faster than Owen.
