💬 LESSON DESCRIPTION:
I have a very practical lesson for you today. 
I just want to share with you the exact warm up guitar exercise that I do almost every single time that I practice.
Sounds a bit boring, but this warm up is really important to me.
I injured my arm from playing too much guitar twice in my career. 
Both times were devastating.
There were moments when I wasn't sure if I'd be able to play again. 
In the end, the answer to healing and being able to play sustainably again was warming up. 
I found that this exact warm up guitar exercise helped the most in getting me loose, preventing further injury, and allowing me to play with way more accuracy. 
I still do it religiously and it continues to be beneficial.
Here's what's covered in this lesson:
    • I describe the warm up guitar exercise and demonstrate it fully with tabs and notation on screen
    • I talk about what to focus on while practicing
    • I show how to turn it into a more advanced exercise
    • And lastly, I share the common technique mistake that you should avoid doing at all costs when playing something like this
I don't even mention my injuries in the video—I just wanted to share that with you here. I'll save discussing that more for a future lesson.
