Who practices the most here on the average day?

[CorwinShiu]

On the average day, I don't touch them. Only on the weekends. Like, I surf the forums during my 5 minute break every 90 minutes I study. If I cube, I have to take an average, or actually accomplish something. I only cube during weekends I am free.

Craig, Andrew, you are not even near a win (this is a comp, I'm sure).

I use normaly about 10-15 hours a day cubing!!

My longest streak is some 36-40 hours: on the way to Helsinki open last year, all night (me and Mikael Öhman), only stoped to get of the boat and to the competition, cubing all day at competiton, only stopped to get back to the boat to Stockholm again and then cubed all night on the way home. (I think Mikael practice even more than I do, honestly =)

Ok, most time my cubing is looking for algs and learning new methods I create so it's not really practising, rather developing.

 

[Inusagi]

30 min each day average. I hope I could have more time.

 

[sahunhong]

3-4hrs a day.

 

[jeff081692]

I practice every chance I get which is about 8 hours a day. (Im in school right now lol.)

 

[Dene]

I do about 15 cubes at school, but that doesn't count as practice because I just go slowly.

I beg to differ - This sort of practise is useful for F2L practise, finger trick practise, and lookahead practise.

I guess I get in a good 4 hours most days (because it's holidays). Or else higher. On a bad day maybe only 1 hour.

 

[ExoCorsair]

Woot, thread necro.

When I do practice (rarely), it's something like an average of 12... Maybe that's why I haven't had much progress lately.

 

[alexc]

I practice between 1-2 hours during the week and maybe 3 on the weekend.

 

[Tomarse]

i do a fair few hours, maybe solving, maybe 5 mins a day learning algs but i get whined at in college for doing it around campus

 

[cmhardw]

My practice routine also depends on how much I am working that week. On light work-weeks I practice minimum 1 hour per day, with some days as many as 2-3 hours. On really crazy weeks I either practice around 1 hour every other day, or maybe only 20-30 minutes per day. On my days off I can easily practice 4-6 hours, and sometimes as much as 8.

At my peak practicing back when I was in college I practiced minimum 3-4 hours per day.

[hdskull]

Usually 1 hour a day.

 

[Swordsman Kirby]

I only practice 4x4 and 5x5 nowadays.

Maybe three solves a day on each; it's not enough, but schoolwork is taking precedence.

 

[slncuber21]

i usually cube for about 45 minutes straight on good days but sometimes i dont cube at all because of school work and book reports

 

[Mike Hughey]

Other than online competitions, I practice less than a half hour per day. But the online competitions are far and away the bulk of my practice. I figure I spent about 10 hours this week on the first of the forum's competitions this year (including scrambling time, warmups, etc.). And I spend another 2 1/2 hours a week on Ryan Heise's competitions. So that's a little less than 2 hours per day on online competitions. So around 2 hours a day, I guess.

Clearly, I spend too much of my time doing big cubes BLD.

 

[Lofty]

it really depends on the day. Today I only have one period of class but some days I have 5 periods...
But I get in a lot of cubing! I do at least an average of 50 OH. plus all the other solves I do I don't time like if i pick up a 4x4 or 5x5 or cube slowly while bored or whatever. I would say maybe 2 hours minimum.

Practice Time

30 Minutes if I have a lot of homework, up to maybe 2 hours if I have none.

 

[Y2k]

I'm pretty steady on my practice. I bring my cube to school, get in one solve before school, (I don't get into school until like 2 minutes before it starts) Cube and solve maybe 5-10 times slowly in study hall, maybe 10-20 solves at lunch, 2-3 solves in my class after lunch, one or two in the locker room, then about 5 times waiting for the bus. So maybe 30-40 solves at school and I do an odd solve here and there at home.

 

[TobiasDaneels]

I practice around 30 minutes a day.
When I have more time, I practice almost an hour.

My big problem is that I rarely take averages.
Only every 3 or 4 days, I take an averages.

 

[icke]

i take avg every now and then. i dont really practice in the sence of sitting down and keep on cubing. i usually have my cube on me somewhere and whenever i have a change to cube i do so. sometimes i sit down and take some times on the pc then i cube around one hour. since i m kind of busy and some of my friends dont like to see me cube all the time my number of solves got down a bit but i will start practicing more after i saw how much other people cube

 

[martian]

I practice about 1 hour every day. (I also bring my cube to school) On weekend I practice about 2 hours. When I have a lot of homework, I scarcely have time to practice........... But I am getting serious at speedcubing now, so I think I need to spend more time on practicing the cube.
