I know, another thread on practicing. However, I just watched a video that really hit a chord with me and I think it deserves its own thread… This is excellent advice for practicing anything in life, not just bass, but it is done is a bass context.
My practice routines will be changing quite a lot based on this advice, which makes common sense when you think about it…
Here’s another take on practice from a good bassist which is quite different.
To me, your routine has to fit you. If I had a highly structuired routine, and I have tried, I would lose interest. When I take the b2b lessons, I often start with the workout and noodle it into something else. Everyone’s routine will be different.
I would say I fall somewhere between the two different camps. Sanne’s appraoch would not work for me, but neither would Cici’s.
I am just like her in regards to practice 
This is how I’ve always approached practicing. I’ve always spent the vast majority of my time playing and very little practicing.
Same here. That said: what works for me probably wouldn’t work for everyone, and I am not arguing that this is a fast way to advance. More of a statement of my own thing.
I sat down to practice today on the new Schecter, I almost called it a Gretsch silly me, and I was planning to learn Cheap Sunglasses. I did some scales, played my normal warmup tunes, listened to Cheap Sunglasses a couple times, and then went to play. Two hour later really made no progress but did write a new groove.
