Practice routine
What is your typical daily practice routine?
I practice playing pieces I know and ones I am learning. I do very little scale work and practice technique when needed for a piece. My routine goes something like this... One hour in the morning, 1/2 hour at lunch, and probably an hour after work. So, approximately 2+ hours a day. All for my joy of playing only.

2 hours a day almost everyday. 4-5 days a week only flamenco guitar. 2-3 days acoustic and electric.
15 minutes warm-up (aka. Picados, rasgueados, tremolo, scales, alzapua...) 45 minutes practice what is more dificult for me, and also study new Estudios and so on. 1 hour of playing what I feel like.

Lately I've been preparing to record my arrangements of 13 Christmas songs. I will play thru each of the songs one time, which takes me about an hour. I try to do this 2 or 3 times a day.
It took awhile to get my arrangements memorized. Now when I practice them, I focus of fluidity/playing legato, and playing with feeling/Spirit (vs. just mechanical). I have also begun practicing in a park (weather permitting) near people who can hear me play. There is a threshold of playing for people vs. just playing alone in a room which must be crossed.

As for my routine, it is somewhat limited by my disability (severe back injury and arthritis). I can only play for 30-45 minutes at a time but try to set down with my guitar at least twice a day and some times more often. After a few bars of chord progressions I play through the songs I have memorized, then work on the ones I'm learning or still trying to commit to memory. Some days the emphasis is on new stuff and other times I spend most of the session on smoothing out the stuff I already know. Dave
