Thank you, Norsepicker and Jon. I wished I had asked this question 20 years ago.
I was a music major in college and I had plenty of lessons but that question was never a concern of mine. Although I was a music major, I did not study the guitar like I'm studying it now. My instructor would tell me how to practice a certain skill and I would bang it out in few months and I would be able to do it. I began learning Austurias from my professor during my last semester and while he got me started, we never got into the nitty gritty of how to practice the triplets and how to develop the speed....and how to maintain a good right position while playing at your top speed etc.
Thank you, guys. I will take your advice and let my hand heal ..and I'll minimize my practice time on Austurias.
