[br]I prepare myself mentally at first. It means that one hour (or so) before the whole practising I know that I will play and how long I will play (I usually set up exact practise time). In this time I begin to prepare myself, to concentrate and to think about what I will practise exactly.[br]When my practise session begins, I start with some simple scales. I play them slowly and put emphasis on getting my fingers used to the touch with the strings. Sometimes I do not play scales, I only play separate tones with all fingers separately for the same reason - to get my fingers used to the touch with the string. It may sounds ridiculous, but it really helps me and it may take max.4 minutes (one minute each finger). Then I focus on what I will practise in this specific session and I begin to play the most difficult parts from it slowly and repeatedly.[br]That´s my way to warm up.
