Time that was earmarked for vacations, or doing stuff out of town or into the evening has been cancelled, so I've been free to practice nearly every day of the week. However, due to usual shenanigans of time management (or lack thereof), getting distracted, or sometimes being genuinely busy, my practice has varied wildly.
There are some days where I just cut my losses, figuring I'll play more later the next day (so 30 minutes on the 2nd day, 0 on the first). Other times, I figured something constant might be the ticket (so something like 15 minutes per day). Are there any studies to indicate what's effective and what's not? All I know of is if you're going to "go marathon" to build up endurance, then take breaks. For example, or 3 hours of playing, take a 15 minute break after each hour or so.
