Many guitarists dont have enough time to practice for long periods of time. But if you want to progress fast, you need the guitar in your hands as regularly as possible.
Its better to practice for 10-20 minutes every day, than 4 hours on just one day of the week.Getting into a rhythm of regularly picking up your guitar for a quick practice session is a great habit to get into.
So if you dont have enough time for a full practice session, and you have 10-15 minutes to spare, heres some ideas for what you should practice:
Practice a chord change.
Perhaps switching from an F barre chord to a D open is causing you difficulty?
If you spend just ten minutes going over and over the change, you will increase your ability to do it at the level you require.
The key is to focus, and hone in on one skill that you can improve in a short period of time.
Work on a song you want to memorize.
This will give you a chance to actually play some music! You need to have fun in your practice to keep you fresh and focused.
Listen to a song on a CD and jam along.
This is a great way to improve your playing, and its particularly suitable...
