Study Schedule

Hey guysI have been worrying recently about "masturbatory" learning since reading mercs book and whether my study shedule is up to scratch.I normally have around 2-4 hours a day to play/study. My general routine depends on how much time I have if I've got 3-4 hours I will start out with a vid or the hand reading game, Then spend the majority of the time playing concentrating on hand reading, not auto piloting and paying attention to stack sizes ( my biggest leaks atm I think), I always try to finish with posting hands from some trouble areas I had during the session and sometimes EV calcs (although I know I'm slacking in effort here due to my computer being so slow to start up excel).What do you guys think of this? where could I improve/what could I add?What do your playing and studying shedules look like?Any advice from pros would be very welcomed as your way of going about it has clearly worked :DCheers

It sounds like your biggest

It sounds like your biggest leak is having a computer that can't start excel very quickly.That may sound like I'm joking, but honestly your approach looks good. Starting with a video to get you into playing mode, then focusing on hand reading and your individual opponent during a session, and finally concluding by posting a few hands/trouble spots on forums. That is a great use of time.
