I don’t have an answer but I feel you! I started the 30 day course this past Sunday and did the blues shuffle and blues bass line on Monday and Tuesday. Today I felt like it was smarter to practice both of those lessons instead of moving on so I did (about 3-4x each) and I thought that was time well spent.
There are a total of about 18 topics in the 30 day course, so it looks like there are practice/no lesson days baked in.
BTW I’m 64 with ZERO guitar experience. If I can manage even one bar of decent picking and rhythm it feels like a win to me!
