I have never practiced alternating second deals with tops until today and this is where I'm at after my first time practicing it for 15 minutes.
4 tops then 4 seconds 4 tops, 4 seconds, etc... I would value any thoughts on it. Thank you.

Seems pointless, even as a dealing exercise … focus on how seconds are actually used at the table (remember it’s not a race).
Anything with a total practice time of 15 minutes probably isn’t worth posting a video of here.

However, this is not the case. Besides, the first half of your post contradicts the second half. I would rather practice doing something "pointless" for 15 minutes than practice doing it for 15 weeks and then ask for advice and be told it was supposedly pointless anyway. Either way, your opinion has been noted.

Perhaps by the good grace of Deity, these drills are less pointless.

False deals of course can be used to stack the deck when pretending to count them: if you start with a deck in new deck order and deal tops and bottoms it will stack them in such a way that you can have the deck cut anywhere and deal any number of hands and you, that is the dealer, will still invariably end up with the winning hand. I do not know if that works dealing 4 tops and 4 bottoms and so on but it is something you might want to test and see for your amusement.
If there is a single truth about Magic, it is that nothing on earth so efficiently evades it.
