Practice diary

[vucko117]

Hi guys,
as plenty of us are trying to improve their game I have opened this thread in which you can post what you are going to practice today,how many hours you have planned to practice,your short term plans,your long term plans. Also I was thinking that for every week we can choose one practice which we are all going to do,and then we can compare our results.

I am planning to practice 3 hours today. I will be practicing black of the spot,line-up,clearing the colours and some rest play...
My short term plan is to become standard 40 break player until the end of January(currently 30 break player), and my long term plan is to become century break player in next 3 years...

Wouldn't it be better in Coaching questions? I'm going to practise now, around 2-3 hours. I'll tell you later about my exercises.:snooker:

I wanted to put in the coaching questions... But made a mistake... Do you have some short term and long term plans?

I keep meaning to keep a log of what I do to compare.
I try to practise everyday but I don't at all. I'm lucky to get 1/2 an hour 3 days a week. Where are you going to get the time to play 3 hrs a day?

I started playing in April but seriously in September, I've never played pool or billiards so I don't have the background of other players.

My goal is to improve and become less frustrated. As I've read and watched a lot, I see things easily in my head, but my arms don't do exactly what I tell them to... My long term plan (around June) is being able to make breaks of 50, but mostly enjoy the game. I also have problems of concentration and maybe snooker could help me with that.

sorry I have some exams Anyway I am going to the club right now. Will stay 5 hours. And I am going to practice break building for about 3 hours and then I will have practice match... Was thinking to practice clearing the blue-pink-black,devoloping the pack after potting the black and blue. Last practice is going to be potting red-black in sequence. I will put 4 reds between pink and black spot and try to pot as much red-black as possible.
