How Your Table and Chair Impacts Your Aiming When Gaming

- How we position the aiming arm directly influences our ability to control the mouse and aim the crosshair. In this video, I talk about the vertical height of the aiming arm and how it's influenced by a desk and chair.

This video just convinced me that I am not crazy and my table really is to high.
Koonski or ur chair is too low
@@RRREDAAA Nono my last chair and my current one are adjustable in height. But I am too little to get my feet on the ground when I adjust the height to the desk x)
oh and my desk has two top plates on top of each other. The bottom one has a hole in it right were my mouse would be >.

@@Koonski same its soo annoying am trying too find a new table
After I watched this video, I never missed a single shot.
Why would you quit playing?
what about a string of shots?
kapp
U just probaly bought a good gaming chair
Captain Price me too and I play Master Yo
It's not just for gaming, but for life, ergonomics is SUPER important, thank you bringing this super nice video
i literally just adjusted little bit based on your tips and i feel so much more comfortable while gaming, the amazing thing is that i felt this way right at the first minute!
I've been trying to figure out for awhile now why it feels weird to grip my mouse and this literally answers everything. Unnatural positioning that leads to feeling very mild discomfort that can be described as unnatural/not feeling that well that day.
Exactly, I switched to controller cuz of this
@@sleepingturtle32 đ
Man I miss the old cs days, I was so proud to see a Korean/Asian on that world stage when it was so heavily dominated by EU. Nice to see you are active on passing on your 20+ years of wisdom.
:D
Re fuckin tweet brother!
Team 3D all dayyy
This turned up in my recommended, reminded me of the team 3D days!
Whoâs aug is this?
it's been 3 years since this uploaded and I STILL need to rewatch this every now and then to remind myself to be HIGHER than my table so i dont fuck up my body and performance due to all day tension from a bad position. you're a life saver coach!
Ever since I watched this video and applied this, it really improved my performance and comfortability. Thank you for sharing it.
This video is so original i've never came across a video talking about this topic
đ
No for real tho this new and i like how he talks about how even your table and chair impact your performance in a game
@@zeffez8161 go ahead
You don't even know how much I needed a channel like yours as a competitive player. I'm now watching all the videos you made.
Thank you so much for this vid. Adjusting the height of my table to accomodate the resting position of my arm immediately felt MUCH better.
đ
I used to compete in CS 1.6 and I remember watching you and other pros demos. You guys were my idols. Thanks for the helpful video
Controller players: *Lol I'm good*
Upper cross syndrome says hello
@Trump TheTerrorist right, but what I mean by "lol I'm good", I mean they don't want to go to through the trouble of practicing all this. I'm not saying they think they are good with aim assist in most fps games, although many of them do
@Deadpoppin eh, that some is a very small percentile
Were talking about aim. Not aim assist!
@Deadpoppin Sure but that doesn't matter. You just can't aim a stick like you can aim a mouse. A mouse will always be the superior option, regardless of one's skill with the stick.
Hey Ron, just wanna say this was a good video explaining, and keep up the good work! Love to see you grow!
I cannot believe its you. Ill never forget 3D and the impact that team had on CS. I cannot believe I just found you making videos now! zEx, 3D, you, ksharp, shag...... ILL NEVER EVER EVER FORGET THOSE DAYS. Truly looked up to you and the boys and am grateful that you are still around. I'm 35 now and would give anything to go back and do it all over again! Subbed for life man.
amazing content, really. concise, but good amount of information, and touch points a lot of ppl dont. everybody is always saying "uh get a low sense and crosshair placement" but at this point this has become obvious and you really get to the next level. loved both of you videos. keep up the good stuff ^^
Ron your videos are exceptionally helpful. Thank you for all your hard work
Canât tell you how grateful I am for this advice. I have almost 3k hours in siege and Iâve been so frustrated at why Iâm not consistent with my aim. Some days itâs felt like a pain to aim upwards quickly and some days itâs easier. I never noticed that it had to do with my posture. Luckily I have the adjustable desk and chair so Iâm able to fine tune how I need to and WOW. It has made such a difference in comfort and mobility of my arm. Iâm able to aim wherever I need to without extreme effort and awkward movement because of bad posture. Huge difference. Canât wait to try more ranked games with the correct posture.
can you explain this. 1 day my aim is perfect then the next i cant hit shots that i would have yesterday. i also adjusted my chair height and it reduced the friction on the mousepad but im so inconsistent
@@XxViPeRxGaMeRxX I would say start lowering your mouse sens. Iâve played with good posture and everything how I like it but with the wrong sens. I started at 1000dpi and every week I lowered it by 100. Now Iâm at 200dpi and it means moving my hand across the desk more but Iâm used to it now and it has made my aim so much better. No more overshooting really or shaking. Definitely worth the time if youâre willing to try.
@@yaboy3627 You could also lower in game sens but yeah
This is huge. I bumped up chair and feel great. Thank you Coach Kim!
Bro, i love you, honestly, i was iregular player, onde day better other days a potato, and everything it was on my possition, love u, new suscriber
Wow desk height really plays a critical role on aiming, I just changed it a few cm to make it like in the video and my arm moves so much more freely now and microadjustments are so easy
Honestly, I always thought my setup was wack but wasnt sure how. After seeing this, i got 3 extra cushions for my chair and it helped my arm sit more flat to the desk and my aim feel so good now. I also dont get as tired as I did before, you honestly deserve so many more subs, you are extremely underrated for the content you produce, well done!
I have been dealing with this for years and yeah I finally decided to chop it down the left side of my desk to lower the table to elbow height. Thank you so much for the help.
On the strange side I decided to use my left hand/arm for my mouse to put less strain on my right shoulder.
I love this, ive been playing FPS since i could remember and ever since i got a new setup, I felt off like I couldn't hit shots and everything felt off, the biggest thing i felt like i was gaming uncomfortable, and if i didnt feel good it made me tilt and i wouldnt be able to aim but now since i found a good comfortable position, I could hit my shots and my mental is up!!!!
Short and sweet presentation! With these advices adjusted in, my shoulders already feel more relieved and at ease (even for when I am studying/working).
đ
I was leaning to the right and had problems in my pinky and ring finger from pushing on it while leaning. I have a feeling this will help me a lot. Great video
Already seeing control improvements with having my shoulders in a neutral position rather than having them hunched upwards due to a table being too high/chair too low. I value your videos, hopefully going to save a lot of backs and necks and wrists!
I love videos that go into detail like this
I always wanted an adjustable table since I saw them at my dad's work as a kid. I'll definitely take a look at this brand, thanks for the great video once again!
Very insightful stuff that a lot of players dont think about. I used to think about these outside of the box things 10 years ago in 1.6. Teammates would laugh at me when I would talk about my posture, table height, etc lol. Thinking outside the box is what separates you from others, an advantage that others don't have.
vdd
Saw this video just today and it's changed my whole mission this summer I gotta set some time to find an adjustable desk and chair. I've been getting posture problems and muscle strain trying to raise my forearm slightly higher to accommodate my desk!
Appearantly I played while tilting to the right, extending my shoulder, leaning froward, having only my wrist on the table while the rest of my arm is struggling, my legs weren't supported etc. This caused me EXTREME discomfort in 5 minutes of gameplay, this video was amazing and helped alot, like I'm not even kidding, you just really helped me out alot man and a sub and like won't be enough, I really appreciate it man, for the 70th time, thank you
đ
i was just thinking about this , thank you
I definitely feel a difference between how well I play with a proper chair / desk and how well I play when sitting at say, a kitchen counter with a stool as a seat.
how huge was the difference?
As a complete noob to pc gaming your channel has helped me a ton! Thank you!
I actually tried your proposed method while gaming and its very efficient, indeed -- my arm feels much lighter and easier to track targets. Thanks!
Thank you for this much needed video on proper posture. It has been highly effective in better gameplays and not feeling tired. Thank you again!
After watching this video, I'm very suprised and confused that my body hasn't broken into pieces yet.
đ
@@RonRamboKim I will try to better it tho xD thanks to this video, very helpful : )
Im looked forever for a video like this. Thanks!!!
this makes a lot of sense. thanks
This was the exact topic I was hoping you'd cover. I was really hoping you went a little more in depth with this though. I have an adjustable desk and have been trying to find a good height for arm aiming however a 90 degree angle reference doesn't work as you need to extend your arms out in front to lay on the desk hence changing the height you would need to lay most of your forearm on the table. Also for the amount of flare on the arm also has to do with table height.
Thanks a ton this video really helped my aim!
After watching this video and the aim mechanics I feel like I am in way more control and feel more consistent. I changed my mouse grip and fixed my posture and chair to my table. And Iâve only readjusted for a day too so this stuff works people!
Wasnât really looking for this video as I do not play many FPS on my PC. But this could certain fix the little pains in my shoulder I get from time to time.
See, this is the kind of content I love to see on youtube. Straight to the point, informative, but also not too quick. I also love that this guy doesn't once beg you to like/subscribe/comment. This is the first video I've seen from this dude ever and I have never felt a stronger urge to like a video and subscribe to their channel. Well done Ron.
Thanks Vlad!
@@RonRamboKim Absolutely! Looking forward to future videos. Thanks again.
Desync?
Love the info tho bro. Always enjoying the fps info nice and straight to the point!! Keep it up
If you only ever watched 1 how to video ever on pc gaming, this would be the best one as its one of the most important concepts imo. Subbed, this is amazing.
You have exactly pinpointed my problem. I have a non-adjustable desk, and I am sitting on a bed. It does not matter how many times I have tried switching to the full forearm aim, I would always get shoulder pain because of the tilted posture.
RRK deserves millions of subs I swear thereâs nobody doing this in depth look into FPS like he does
Thx, found out that my table is high for a little bit, just put a pillow on my chair and now it's perfect fit :D
đ
Me toođ€Ł
Iâm gonna try this in the morning đ
That's smart af
Hello Kim, your channel is amazing very informative and extremely helpful. I like how you talk about all the factors other than simply mouse control that influence aiming. Thank you.
I felt this quite a lot when I went to LAN. The desk setup there was a lot lower relative to what I'm playing on at home, it took me a little while to adjust because I had so much more freedom of motion than I was used to, so I was overshooting and overflicking a bit. After I came back I started looking for lower desks or ways of raising my seating height lol.
I was played on a so wrong position for all this time, cant believe, THANKS
I was waiting for some thing like this! Thank you Ron :-)
Maybe you could do some vids with some of the guys you coached, more content?
Awesome! Thanks for the advices!
Thank you for this video!
Itâs so weird that I never realized I let my elbow be pushed out and be in a weird position when gaming or even working sometimes. Thatâs so crazy. Thanks for this video very informative and precise.
I was also thinking about same dude you are really good đ
ur video always helps
Your video changed my life bro. Ty!
Great video as always :D
For short people with high desks: Just raise your your chair height to a comfortable position then grab a foot stool for leg support make sure itâs flat and sturdy. You shouldnât have to spend much money at all and chances are you probably have one at home already.
An old Xbox360 can be used as a footstool if u have one, very sturdy and flat. I bought 2 footstools on amazon , on broke and the other one keeps slipping despite the anti slip grips before switching to the X360
yann boun yeah bro I had the Xbox 360 until I felt like it was a ticking bomb under my feet. So I switched to the PC. I got it custom made at 4.5k and it feels really good on my feet.
u forgot the paper reams, that shit is used for everything in the office xD
also you can stack the xbox on stacks of paper for milimeter adjustment
flat position isnt the best position choice though
Thank u so much...this help me when it's not comfortable table too high
you made me progress on Kovaak 2.o trainer. I was stuck on stage 2 flick, now I'm currently on stage 5 lvl 3. Did no redos from stage 2, except for a need to do 2 rounds per level. Less fatigue, more control.
Finally Iâve been needing a video like this. Iâve watched everything else and know everything but how my chair and table should be I didnât and couldnât find information.
I've been wonderin this myself so its good to hear another perspective
Same
Finally someone talks about it, always wondered
wow ty Ron for a very informative video
Great video!
hey Ron, would love to know your thoughts on gaming chairs vs ergonomic chairs and which is better for bringing out optimal performance. great video!
Gaming chairs are ergonomic chairs.
Lol.. Meaning ergonomic chairs are amazing for any sitting activity. So yeah gaming chairs are a myth
no they arenât. gaming chairs are honestly a waste. i got the staples hyken mesh ($140.00 usd) replaced my super expensive secretlab titan chair with it. world of a difference for my knees back and body.
@@TheJan Nope, most "gaming" chairs are a complete waste of money, they're usually somewhere in between a bucket seat and an office chair. Get yourself a good ergonomic chair, your back will thank you for it :)
@@ThatSteemBloke got myself a level 3 aeron herman miller. Best chair ever
These simple tips actually helped quite a bit! Thank you!
Glad it helped!
so good bro, thanks
Having an adjustable table is really really nice. This brand is pretty good, one of very few that can be lowered to around 62cm for short people, which is hard to find as most standing desks lowest height is around 70cm. We really need good ergo chair tho, with good adjustments that's not 1 grand in cost. đ„ And thank you Ron for making these videos and keeping them short and concise. The short part is especially good for my short attention span. đ
what brand
WHAT BRANDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
This video prove that when I play CS in different places, I felt like there is something off with my arm movements
Damn I love how you do your videos. The sub to you is more than justified. Keep up the good work.
âHeâs not hacking he just has good postureâ
Amazing stuff man. Thank you for sharing this knowledge. It's not only important for your aim, it's important for your health.
Yessir
This even helped me with mmorpgs, the game I play is action combat and the specific class I play is very aim heavy..but wow that desk is awesome...thanks for good info
dayum thats a ultra helpful video, tnx soo much, subscribed!! ^^
Almost closed the video 1 min in thinking it's going to be the same old same old.
I was really impressed and learned something. Thank you đȘ
đ
for 3days i was also researching for this topic becoz my left arm is paining due to I Increase the chair height with pillows as i use plastic chairs my table height is low of neutral position and i think it help if i INCREASE chair height with PILLOW i was wrong THANK TO FULLY đ
NOW MY ALL DOUBTS are CLEAR THANKs man APPRECIATED đ
That's a question i was asking myself for ages. Thank you!
Just saw this today. Unfortunately wifey and i just invested in double computer table setup for gaming, so trying to find a new adjustable one is out of the question. However I never really knew what "good posture" was supposed to look like. So I learned something there and will be changing things up today with chair height and posture. Thanks for the vid!!!
Exactly I feel this everyday even my chair position from my table matters a lot it has already ruined my aim a lot of times.thank youđ
Much more important than just gaming, too. Everyone should follow this posture advice, especially those working at their computers 8 hours a day.
NoGround ahhhemmmm coding
Very informative video, thanks!
This is really cool, thank you for this
You are gem dude!!!
CZcams suggested me this video after i moved my gaming setup to an other room and i also were thinking yesterday about the way im using the mouse in fps games, well done youtube
Useful. Very useful. Impressive
nice content, keep this up
For me, I have to put pressure on my forearm just to minimize my ârandom twitchesâ when trying to aim. Happens more going to the right. So I have to flex a bit more just to keep myself from uncontrollably whipping and miss my shot/tracking.
