Thought I'd share my practice routines with you guys.
My approach is to real goals set according to my priorities.
So here it is!
Monday:
About the Psych warm up and pre-warm up: Recently I've been reading a lot a about this, as well as I've hear from very famous guitarists and local colleges that the mindset truly affects our overall results when practicing, so I decided to put some focus unto that aspect.
On the pre-warm up, I had a bad experience 3 or 4 years ago, I used to forfeit warming up before getting into practice. And also, I would practice excessively, without specific goals, just mindlessly shredding or attempting to shred on solos or exercises. As a result I got tendinitis and it was not nearly worth it because progress was minimal. I learned that without purpose or direction, the mindless repetition of everything will just cause a Repetitive Motion Injury, and that you oughta be all warmed up before doing acrobatics on the guitar.
That last one I learned the hard way! I leave you this so you don't have to learn it the hard way!
Happy quarantine!
