Re: How to improve clarinet playing while injured

When you start again, take frequent breaks and increase your practice time gradually over many weeks if you really aspire to do that much playing, or even a fraction of it. Your body surely sent you many warning signals before you got to this point - be sure to listen better moving forward! Practicing tired and hurt is no way to develop good fundamentals.

In the meantime I would do quite a bit of study about how to practice well. There are a handful of good books and podcasts out there on the subject. I wish I had studied this subject more deeply many years ago, but this is a good time to do it as all the discoveries of sports psychology are now filtering into our much less well-funded music world.
