If you are a monk, it would be difficult or even impractical to follow more than one traditions.

If you are a household life, it should be OK to study more than one traditions provided that you have time to do so.
However, for practicing, if you practice to follow more than one traditions at the same time,
you may confuse yourself. Moreoever, you do not know that good or bad results come from what part.
So, for practicing, it is recommended to select one tradition to follow.
If you spend time with it, and the result is not good, you may try another, (but one by one).
Mixing up should not be not good for practicing.
