Supposedly, learning and improvement happens in the spaces between practice. Also, I heard that the LAST repetition has the most "weight" in your learning. So, most people end up playing scales over and over again, really grinding. Getting frustrated as the speed increases because it is not happening. By the end, they are going too fast, are sloppy. The last repetition is probably the 16th notes at 180 or whatever, and is the worst one. So then they stop, their hands hurt, they have put in some good information, and put in a lot of bad information, and the last, most important repetition, is total trash. Oh, you mean I'm the only one who has done that?! :)

I think having breathers from repetitive practise has to be a good thing. Sometimes i just dont feel like playing the guitar and the more i try and force myself to play when im in this mood the worse i think i sound and its not good phycologically. I hate that feeling when u go to put the guitar back in the case and your thinking, why do i bother? So now if i dont feel like playing i dont play, otherwise i end up hating the intrument which is something i dont want to happen. Also what u guys r saying about you muscles remembering and all thatr stuff makes sense, also your brain digesting everything and making new pathways for the new stuff u may be learning has to take time as well.
