If you want to get better at the guitar, but you also have many other goals (family, friends, job, other hobbies), <\/strong>it’s completely fine to practice 4-5 times a week. <\/p>\n\n\n\nNot practicing every day <\/strong>is definitely more difficult because it’s harder to do any habit consistently only a few days out of the week–but you don’t have to feel bad if you miss a week, because you aren’t playing to land a gig, you’re playing for fun. <\/p>\n\n\n\nIn short, daily practice will help your learning to sink in much more effectively than intermittent practice, but it mostly depends on your goals if you need daily practice. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
