This is SO true! Not many people ever seems to think of it like that either. I’ve had long sessions of learning nothing and I’ve had 5-10 minute sessions where I’ve had things just start to make sense and made great strides.

You are 100% correct in everything you say. Always spend some time each day trying to learn or enhance something you want / need to know. But I would recommend you spend 75% of your time learning new songs or improving on songs you already know ie: keep it fun...

It's true. 5 minutes of trying to play some a riff that I couldn't get down, be it Crazy Train, Cowboys from Hell, Last Resort or Snow (hey oh) I'd play around 5-10 minutes practicing and then I'd move on to noodling, playing some riffs I already knew or hell, even moving on to another riff I couldn't play and just spending 5-10 on that one, and suddenly the next day, I could just play it much easier than the day before. Doing it in the morning and at night for 5-10 every day would probably make it go fast as well, and after about a week of doing it, I could play all of those riffs about 90%. It truly is how many rather than how much.

You’ve really got a gift at putting some complex things into a simpler delivery that everyone can understand! I’ve been playing tabs for 15 years and have really gotten stuck. Just bought an electric and signed up for lessons. I subbed after binge watching your videos. Pumped to learn all over again!

In applied behaviour analysis, we understand that distributed practice is far more successful, in terms of learning outcomes, than is massed practice. It's why cramming doesn't work (yes, folks - whatever you got in an exam you crammed for is what you would have got anyway!). It's why - in karate training - you spend a short amount of time learning a new technique or practising an already-learned one. In a two hour session, you're not learning a technique for 45 minutes and practising a previously learned one for another 45 minutes ... I suspect that the Japanese had a handle on behaviour analysis very much earlier than we did in the west.

Completely agree with everything you said. And to get real specific... you must practice precisely. If you fudge and muddle through you are training your brain to muddle and will not improve. Your brain must do it right to memorize the right way. The Talent Code by Daniel Coyle is a fantastic book on this subject. Cannot recommend it high enough. 🧡⚔️🎨

This is what I needed to hear. I started learning on my own and got frustrated after a while. So I took lessons for six months to improve my skills. I stopped the lessons because my teacher could not answer my questions about how to structure my practice sessions. He' just say" practice every thing" which is not a real answer at all. I wanted to know how much time I should spend on chords, picking, and technique. In retrospect His style of teaching created more frustration by not conveying to me what this video just did. Up until just now I, would practice spending way too much time trying to nail licks or chord progressions. And hardly any time on technique or reading music. I'm still learning on my own and the best part about it is. I'm no longer paying $75, an hour to be frustrated.😁

I like picking things up, and putting them down at the gym... I'm pretty good at that! 👍💪 On a more serious note; I have an interval timer app on my phone that I set up to go off every min for 15 mins and I do it in the morning and at night. If I feel good then I practice. If I feel bad then I play the fun stuff! The interval app keeps track of my progress as well in a calendar.

I agree with everything you say in this video... But... (Regarding the title of the video)... There is no guitarist with skills that we look up to that practiced for less than 1 hour a day to grow their skills. You can't get beyond intermediate without getting addicted. Getting addicted means it's in your hands... A lot. Hours a day.
@luckyfamilyman4 жыл бұрын
Totally agree balance is key If you don’t have fun you’ll quit If all you do is play the same old what you know you’ll never improve So key to have a guitar out so you can grab easily.. you need to have at least one out of the case to grab you’ll play There’s a lot of guitar collectors out there (just look at their hands, no calluses) but lots of guitars🙄🤣 The tone is in your fingers Balance work practice /play and equipment A good Golfer , Surfer or Guitarist could do real well with crap equipment for a reason🤣👍

While I think that it is beneficial to break practice up into smaller chunks multiple times a day, you are absolutely not going to become a high level musician playing less than an hour a day. You can become a decent low level intermediate musciain playing a half hour a day, but it will take many years and if you want to be a serious guitar player you are absolutely going to need to put in hours a day....there's just way to many different things you need to be able to learn/combine/and master to really get good at guitar
@Kevinschart7 ай бұрын
I think his title is misleading. If you're not playing about an hour a day you won't be more than a strummer or someone who knows a few tricks. But if all you have is 15 mins, you should make the most of it. I wish I had 4 hours to practice. I could get 4 years worth of work done in 1 year.

I'd love a reply on this, would you say at the start of every practice session, one should maybe have fun for like 10 minutes then actually practice for 30 or something as such, or would a half,half balance be good as well. Thanks brother. Would love to be a student.
@andym286 жыл бұрын
Most of the stuff I've tried to learn to enhance my playing has been a waste of time over 25 years and led me to play generically. Pick from the very very best for inspiration and work out your own sound early on. Work on the basics which most get wrong eg uneven vibrato or effective picking. Don't play with feel it makes you sound generic play with conscious thought. Learn lots of rhythms harmony and melodies with dynamics.

Michael Jordan was terrible at triples, so after training, he would stay to keep practicing his triples until he became really good at them. Apply that to guitar, get out of your comfort zone, if you want to be good at say shredding, don't just say "I can't shred", keep grinding until you can.
