Great post Pete– and agree wholeheartedly that 10 minutes every day is great stuff!
But at the start of this thread, we were sort-of comparing “10-minutes” to longer periods of time– (but still every day).
(From Tony’s excerpt)-
“Similarly, sports science shows that weightlifters who trained twice daily for 15 minutes improved more quickly than those who did one long session per week-proving that frequency trumps duration.
And when it comes to guitar, a study published in Frontiers in Psychology found that musicians who played for 10 minutes daily made 30% faster progress in skill acquisition compared to those who played infrequently but for longer periods“Yes, the excerpt noted here refers to how good shorter-sessions-every-day are…….. but instead of comparing them to longer sessions every day- (like at the outset of this thread)– it compares them to “one long session per week” and then “played infrequently but for longer periods”.
Of course, playing every day is gonna provide better results when you hold it up against playing only “one long session per week”. So will playing multiple-short-sessions during every day— in essence playing more than ten minutes every day.
The “earlier” comparisons in this thread were legitimate comparisons. “Every day for 10 minutes” ……. or……… “every day for more than 10 minutes”.
But…. they are completely different from these “latest” comparisons(?) in Tony’s message.
At any rate, I believe the TAC program is great stuff.
