Yeah that’s about the same for me. Anywhere from 1 to 3 hours a day. Once school kicks in though that will drop to about 1 hour. ---

> [@Pheenix](#): > > Whenever I feel like practicing. Just throw when you want to, never throw if you don’t want to. Yeah. Some days either I can’t hit anything at all or I just don’t want to throw so I don’t. Best way to do it is to do it when you feel like it. ---

Yeah that’s the thing I love about yo-yos. Unlike guitars, games, or any other hobbies, the yo-yo is very easy to pick up and put down. Just slip it on, and when you’re kinda “uuuug” just put it back into your pocket that’s it. So yes, just practice when you feel like it. To answer the question, about a total of 10-20 minutes a day ---

> [@Dark Chaos](#): > > Yeah that’s about the same for me. Anywhere from 1 to 3 hours a day. Once school kicks in though that will drop to about 1 hour. Yeah, same for me. I start school this coming Tuesday(September 1st), so my practice time will probably drop a lot. Oh yeah: > [@Pheenix](#): > > Whenever I feel like practicing. Just throw when you want to, never throw if you don’t want to. I go by that. But yoyoing is just SO AWESOME that I end up with about 3 hours during the summer and 1 hour in school year. I don’t have a set time I have to practice. That’s weird IMO ---

If you want to get really good you have to practice a few hours a day. However, you can still get pretty good by just throwing whenever. I probably throw about and hour every day (sometimes more sometimes less). The key is to experiment with new things so you can make up more tricks :wink: ---

5 hours? I just throw casually. When I’m at home, at the mall, wherever I am. Today I threw/ am going to do at 10 because I got up early and have Yoyoclub. ---
