How long should i practice guitar?


How long should i practise guitar?


It’s a usual question hanging around the newbie guitarists about the time devoted to master guitar on each day or in a week....the fact is that it’s not how long you practise, its how you practise is important. You must have a burning desire and love for music you must be self motivated, inspired and dedicated for music. You may not  able to practise guitar for a long time due to your job, education, social life etc...Finding time to practise guitar may be a difficult one....but I'm sure that if you are driven by passion for guitar (not by the compulsion of parents) you will make time for your quest for music.




If you are a beginner or an intermediate level guitarist who knows some kind of chords and scales, preparing to follow a training schedule or to practise on free time ,you have to spend at least 30 Min's or 1 hr per day. If you have time you can move up to 2 to 3 hrs per day. The fact is that how long you practise guitar or any musical instrument, you will become perfect to that extent. The more you train the more you earn. Practising has positive effect on your output. In order to practise efficiently you must driven by motivation. Before starting your practise session dream yourself as a famous guitarist composing music or doing rock n roll on his guitar on stage or the performance of the guitarist you like the most. You don't have to practise continuously, break your practising sections to 15 Min's / 20 Min's sections. That is 20 Min's in morning, noon, evening etc...If you can find time ,you can also practise in one stretch by taking a 10 Min's intervals on every 20 or 30 Min's as you are capable of. While practising a song chord or a scale always start at a low tempo and do not increase tempo without making it perfect. By this way you can master any song. You don’t have to stick to the traditional hours-a-day formula .Practise whenever you got time. If you don't have time make time!


In addition to those practising sections you must play it whenever you have time. Don’t waste your time on watching television or doing blah blah in Internet. Be a musician and make others watch you!


note:do stretching exercises before and after playing guitar.
