What minimal cubing for numerous months does to you

[highnickk]

This thread will just be me talking about my first serious averages in many months, primarily because school and loss of motivation.

First off is 2x2. I used to average 5-6 seconds, and with an average of 25, I got a 7.01, with a best of 4.26 and a worst of 19.68. Not as bad as I thought it would be. Imainly had worse recognition and slightly worse execution.

On 3x3, when I was pretty conistently sub-19, I am now 22.02 according to an average of 12. my best was 17.46, and worst was 33.45. I forgot most OLLs I learned, along with the G perms, and F2L was a bit slower than usual. More coming after I take a break.

I forgot some OLLs and COLLs after I stopped training, but is easy to learn them again. I try to solve casually everyday just to keep in shape

I have school so I cant cube most of the time, and even on sunday or saturday i have something to do. So I only have 1 day to do cubing. Because of this anytime i learn an alg i forget it because of lack of practice

Second part of no cubing for months.

I did another 2x2 average of 5 and got a 10.28, best of 5.85, and a worst of 15.35. I forgot multiple Ortega algorithms, and I am very inconsistent.

With a 4x4 average of 5, I got 1:28.34, best of 1:24.83, worst of 1:42.74. My former average was around 1:15, most of the time difference is me forgetting the color scheme and a slower 3x3 stage. I am still pretty consistent.

Lost interest in cubing a bit, mainly after my guhong v4 center broke. I feel really discouraged from cubing rn. Im probably a lot slower after not practicing for a while.

I forget my UF/UFR algs few months after no practice in 2019. I remember all my DF algs, as I have practiced DF more in the past. I hope I can get to the point where I do not forget UF algs too if I do not do any blindsolving for a few months.

I haven’t cubed for a while either. Mainly ghosting here on the forums.
