2 hrs a day?

[thedeathbat]

just want to ask all of you,
how do you actually make use of your practice time daily to make it effective?


For example, if all you have is 2 hrs a day of practice,

what will u allocate the 2 hrs to work on?



For me, I will maybe 15 mins of warmup, 1 hr of song learning, and 45 mins of rudiments.

I'm a drummer, btw.

it's best to do several sets of 20 minute practices, sometimes slightly more..or at least that's what i do.

i do warm up and then rudiments (not all the time, i admit ) and then i play along to my ipod - some funk or jazz song.

Hmm, I'm rather free now as I'm waiting to go to the baldy holiday camp on Pulau Tekong, hence I do have fixed practice rituals. Around 6-10(Could go up to 14 on a good day) hours a day.
Splitting metal guitar, classical piano and classical theory in the ratio of 6:2:2 respectively.

When I was still in school, I'd practice far less, like, 2-3 hours a day?

its not how much you practice, its how you practice that makes it effective

yes agreed.that's why i was asking how would you practice, if everyone has the same amount of time.

i just play along to a song or just try to make up my own groove and go around it.lots of fun rather than 30 mins of intensive sweeping or legato.
