I'm starting a poker schedule suitable for recreational players

Basically I'm putting a schedule in place aimed at improving and maintaining playing performance.
the idea behind this is to treat playing poker as any other competitive sport. you go training, you practice and you learn you prepare a strategy. Then you go into the game and you try to win.
This can be done week nights after work for any who plays part time, even an hour an evening you can choose whatever you want to work on.

I believe poker is no different. I also believe days away from playing poker and learning instead are a massive benifit, they leave you feeling focused and motivated with a fresh head re-boosted strategy knowledge and it allows you to re-consolidate what you already know as well as bringing more to your game.
My table looks like this, ''putting into consideration im working full time''

(90 minutes)Mondays will be analysing day. going over the weekend post tournament, and working on leaks and anywhere that was notably bad or below where I need to be

(Tuesday) Video tutorial strategy - My usual selection is gripsed or anything on youtube that offers something useful (i.e) to either refresh what I know or to learn something new. I focus on MTT's but adventually going to go back to cash and grind full time so anything is useful.

(wednesday) - More Videe tutorial and some research I'll spend time to take on board different piece of advice or recap something good I've read -

(Thursday) - Watch a recorded live game on youtube tournament I prefer to watch live tournament uploads as you get to see every hand., The EPT/wsop have hours of footage which is very useful. there are also hundreds of cash games.

(Friday) I will hop onto pokerstar's play a few MTT's and I will usually enter some big micro-medium, tournaments (this is my tournament fix day as ive gone usually a full week . If im to play live friday is the day il go or sunday.

(saturday) Saturday is sit n go day, this is really the day I like to focus and ensure my BRM correctly and Avoid any turbo's so I can maximise my profits and not end up tossing for my few quids worth.
I'l also enter satellites for the Sunday million, sit n go to the storm and before bed after my grind. I will watch 45 mins of high stakes online, and practice observing top players trying to find exploits and weak spots. (this is great practice to get into the habit of exploiting spots without worrying what hand you have)

(sunday) if I've satellited I'll play the sunday mill and the storm, otherwise just chill and take the day and evening off, family time etc.

So yeah , anyone looking to improve their game I feel could apply a similiar schedule to myself it doesnt have to be anything i've mentioned it can be any information you enjoy reading/watching, and working on anything you want to work on...

I'm pretty sure this time next year you will be heading upwards and onwards

Kudos to you. This seems to be a serious and sensible approach to discipline and self improvement. No doubt if you have the dedication to see it through it will have to pay dividends. I, for one, wish you well and will keep an eye here on occasion looking for happy things. Have you calculated your past ROI so that you'll have a solid way to measure your improvements?

umm on the whole I aim for a minimum level of performance anything above that will usually be profitable unless im playing turbo tournaments then sometimes crazy stuff can happen.
as a whole I'm a little loose on my BRM I'll take some shots in big tournaments occasionally, because when that big payday does come, it will be massive in regards to what I can do with poker, able to step up the cash stakes with a Deep BR and look to improve at that level advance my own game aswell.
kind of like a business investment to kick start your career

It's maybe not the most cost effective way but as long as im not going broke or backwards financially Im willing to keep aiming high because those big cashes do come, if you put enough into your tournament game

You missed an important component of the improvement effort. You need a group to talk to and with live.

this is descent schedule.....I would suggest getting a hand replayer....

would be Handy, I know on most sites you can review the last hand in screenplay which I do occasionally I'm trying to adress it more often now.

I always thought I was able to go back further if needed (although I've never tried)

i do email myself my last 24hr hh from stars and fix up on my leaks by either going over it myself or sending the hh to my mate on skype he puts them through holdem manager and helps me with my leaks, always handy to speak to better players otherwise you keep falling into the same traps not entirely knowing where you going wrong, you should arrange a sweat thread on here or on skype i would join to discuss, hands, strategy, rail etc etc.

congratulations my pokerpal .
I going to follow your schedule .. Good work
