does practicing 4x4 help 3x3 times

[roaggarwal]

hi, i was wondering if practicing 4x4 help 3x3 times? I am focusing on 4x4 and i dont want to let my 3x3 times suffer. Even if it doesnt help, will it not hurt my 3x3 times. thanks

Can you please stop creating threads with simple questions like this.

Either post them in the one answer question thread or preferably just use the search function.

Ontopic: It depends on how you solve but personally I don't find that my 3x3 times suffer much when I only practice 4x4 for a while...

It probably won't help or hurt your times. It'll probably stay around where it is right now.

It'll probably help. When I cube a lot on my 5x5x5 (like for a complete day) and then I get on my 3x3x3 I'm so f'ing fast It looks so small. Can't wait to have my V-Cube 7

Yeah, I find that after cubing with larger cubes, my lookahead on the 3x3x3 gets great.

I keep reading that look ahead seems to improve, I just might start doing the 4x4 more often (or my 5x5). Either way, I just got an eastsheen 4x4 so it'll be much easier to solve than my rubik's brand

i know that practicing 5x5 helps my 4x4 for finding edges
i think it helps my tps since i cant turn as fast on my 4x4 or 5x5
