Why I Still Practice Like a Beginner

With more than 30 years invested in the process of learning and playing music, I'm still trying to get better and improve my technique.

If you’re a fan of cycling like me, you may have heard about Tadej Pogačar and his zone-2 training revelations, as discussed by Peter Attia and Tadej's former coach Inigo San Millan. I've tried to start applying similar concepts to my daily practice routine, and I'm starting to see improvements, even after more than 30 years of playing.

I'm excited to be able to share some of my progress from the past few weeks in this episode.

More soon,

Janek
