I try to yoyo when I can without sacrificing time that I should be doing something “important.” Sadly, the thing I end up sacrificing most to yoyo time is sleep. I try not to go much more than an hour at a time, but some nights it’s more. What feels like the healthiest yoyo time for me is when I’m out at a park and the kids are doing their own thing so I can yoyo without feeling like I’m avoiding anything but my phone.

Working in a school I do have lot of free time, finish work at 3:30 and I live 10 minutes from my work place.  
I do around 3 hours a day everyday of mindful practice literally taking care of what I am practicing, create combos to film, new tricks and new elements and then around 2 hours after dinner of free throwing and smoothing out combos and even more in the weekend, love to be lost in the loop even more when I am creating combos.

Summertime: a lot, several hours

Wintertime: not as much, I’m happy if I get a half hour.

Actual answer: never enough

In all seriousness, I probably play around 30-45 minutes a day.Mostly broken into 15 minute intervals during - or between meetings (I work from home).

That’s awesome and helpful to hear from someone as proficient as you are. That’s the real ticket, and pretty realistic. deliberate practice can get you far. I hope to one day be as good and fluid as you are, homie

Thanks a lot mate you are very kind.  
At the end of the day I think that more important than “how many hours” is important “HOW” you practice.  
You can do 10 hours and pass 8 of them between your phone, snacks, smoke break etc etc.

Mindful practice with a goal is much more useful, even if it is 30 minutes, if I am working on a combo I do not have breaks until I achieve a satisfying result, sometimes I think I reach a satisfactory result to change it maybe the day after.

I think is all part of the travel, also the “messing around”, after dinner I do love just to play, why not also grab my 888 and just mess around with simple stuff.

I think everything has to be divided in moments some more “serious” than other, this is how I see this game and in this way I love to practice as much as I love to mess around

This right here! I feel exactly the same way. I work on a new trick and grind it out 20-30 mins. Then I find the next day it happens very quickly. There’s a fine line for me where too much is counterproductive, but if I’m having FUN throwing at the moment, I don’t resist!
