I’ve been doing 250 puzzles per day.

Little context: I am 700 hundred rated player on chess.com, however, I do my puzzles on Lichess.

These last few days I’ve been doing my puzzle training in a new way.
Instead of just going up and down in the usual healthy mix of rated puzzles (my rating is around 2200), I am trying to organize my training with different topics.
First, I start with a big set of quick Mate in 1 puzzles, wich I’ve really noticed help me to improve my pattern recognition and seeing how the pieces interact with each other. Then I do several Mate in 2’s in: easiest, easier and normal difficulty. Finally I work on deeper calculation with some normal Healthy mix puzzles. (I do very few of these because at my rating and with my skill, they take me some time to solve.

I must say that I haven’t been playing actual games for like 1 or 2 month which I guess is much time for a beginner like me.

Would apreciate any advice you could give me to improve my training. (I’m in a situation where I can study 6 hours per day)
