Recently I've switched up from practicing maybe an hour a day, to seven or eight, I've improved so much, I realized that it takes me a good half hour to get properly warmed up, then I get better and better the longer I play, thats probly why when I was only playing an hour a day, I was not progressing very fast, how many hours a day do you guys practice?

all day, i hum in my head, i type on the keyboard and i play the guitar whenever i feel like it.

I am sure it doesn't matter how much we practice, because you can practice for 24 hours straight, but do everything wrong and not help yourself out at all.

However, if you really wanna know. It's prolly a good 2 to 4 hours during the week and a lot more during the weekend. That is for a real practice. rest of the time i'm just messing around.

Take it from someone who now suffers from carpel tunnel... 7-12 hours a day??? You should really limit how much time you spend playing. It might take years but all that heavy playing will get ya at some point. And let me tell you, there is nothing sadder than a person who loves guitar to not be able to play anymore. I weeped when I found out I had it, nearly went in for surgery and decided that I was going to play til my hand fell off rather than go under the knife... Thankfully it eased up after several months in a brace with no playing but if I play now more than 2 hours a day I am swelled up and numb for a week. I think a better idea would be less time but more effective practicing. A good warm-up to get limber and focused and then work on something that challenges you a bit. Then when you go back to stuff you were playing it has the influence of what challenged you and you play it with more ease and flare.

Take care of those hands... you'll have them for a lifetime.

wow 12 hours a day, someone with more free time on their hands than me


How long were you playing before you got CT? And how many hours a day were you practicing? I feel for you
