Studying and Homework.


Question Posted Friday August 25 2006, 11:56 am

Lately I have been studying 3-6 hours a day. After about an hour I start getting that weird feeling like I can't stand to sit still anymore, a cramp in my wrist, and my neck hurts. So I get up, stretch, take a short break and go back to work. Like half an hour later I'll start getting all ancy all over again. What are some good tips to help me study longer without easily getting wrist cramps, neck pains and ancy feelings? Thanks.

Take 15-20 minute breaks. Get up, go get water, stretch yourself out, get food if you want then get back to work.

Well, you should only study 20min at one time. 20min studying..5-10min break, 20min study, 5-10min break, etc. Because your brain only stores the first 20min of studying and doesnt remember the rest.

You should do easy exercises like jumping jacks, stretches, sit ups, jogging in place, or just get some water or an apple or something to munch on.

Make sure you sit up straight and bend over the work while you study and make sure you're stting at a desk or table...no lying on the floor or the bed etc. Get comfy in the chair...put a pillow on the back or your butt.

i'm not sure if this would work, but try to make a game out of studying. so like if you say "if i get this question right, i have to do 5 jumping jacks." or like everytime you learn something new, twist your wrists 5 times around. something along those lines

I hope I helped!
