Ah... Im not sure what Andrew thinks but I say 1 hour with Hanon and no rest is a Big Injury-Risk Razz

I only practice 21, to 26 once and no more, im very careful with practicing Hannon, thats why i always practice it once per session, but i also do thumb passing or something like that and scales so i dont exactly like to spend too much with hannon`s 5-finger exercises, 5 finger hannon exercises are very easy to learn and play in my circunstance
