Effective break-taking in between studying

[DrummingAtom]

Being my first semester back in a while. It took me a couple months to get used to studying again. I usually do about 2 hours at a time then take a break. I would say after 2 of these sessions(4 hours total) I'm quite burned out. For my breaks, I just usually sit around and space out. I want to develop killer habits by the time I'm taking upper level classes. Thanks for any advice.

I used to take very fast walks around campus on my breaks, especially up hills. That cleared my head and got my blood circulating.

I usually study for 50 minutes and take a 10 minute break. Then, after 3 of these 50 minute study periods, I take a break for 1 hour.
