So.. I was thinking that my schedule is a little too flexible, I end up just playing pure ZvZ with my friends for most of the time..

So I'm making a new schedule to play. This includes a day full of ZvZ, ZvP and ZvT practice, and 2 days full of ladder practice.

So without further adue:

Monday - Ladder
Tuesday - ZvZ
Wednesday - ZvP
Thursday - ZvT
Friday - Ladder
Saturday - W/e
Sunday - W/e

Now for the weekend, I just do whatever I want. I'm not trying to play 7 days a week, but I end up playing SC2 7 days a week :p

With this I'll have days where I practice certain builds for each matchup, and defend against certain builds, while also executing builds for my opponent, since practice is meant to benefit both of us. The ladder days are just to get more comfortable with certain builds. I'm planning to play at least, in real-time(1 second actually equals 1 second) 8 hours of ladder, and as many hours as I can get with practice partners. My clan has a minimum of 4 hours of sc2 played during the week so it's easy to see the amount of time I play, and they're split into two.. Only Diamond and above get ladder hours counted. If anyone feels the need to check-up on me in case I'm slacking, here are the links to see how many hours you've played:
Ladder Hours
Custom Game Hours

With this, I'll hopefully have enough experience with each matchup to get me far in tournaments, as well as breezing through the ladder to get some nice extra star(top 8 masters :p). After that, I'll just have to keep grinding so everything feels like second nature to me. If you're wondering why the hours are so low.. It's because I keep forgetting to run SC2Gears, and if you're checking up on me the hours update every hour :p

Ohh and one last thing.. With close position disabled on Metal and Shattered, proxy 11/11 is soooo hard to deal with. I met vVv muffins in the Z33k Sundaily, one more round to the Bo3's.. and he did it, except he only proxied one I think

Lot of people burn out because they feel playing is an obligation rather than fun. Be careful about schedules.

That's why I didn't schedule anything for the weekend. I've been doing this for about a month now and I'm not tired of sc2 yet ^^

I am thinking of doing something very similar, days of match specific training has helped my game sense so much.
