I'd be interested in math-boxing, or math-sparring since I take Karate. Timed arithmetic tests share the relevant features of chess (speed, concentration, cognitive focus).

My Systema/Silat training partners are pretty nerdy--one came with me to meet Michael Vassar when he visited Tampa. I'm not a chess or go buff, but I'll see if I can think of anything for us to try, if anyone has metrics which might be interesting to record and report.
