7 awesome exercises for a great practice routine

[@mntaskew]

I would say I’m an intermediate player. I find that a balance in practice is hard to maintain. I can get too hooked on a routine and don’t play music enough.

[@ariekoren4256]

Mike Askew You are so right, I share the same problem.

[@heyou429]

Your high E has the timbre of a piano. Also, very interesting lesson. You're always good with giving us information to work with without a needlessly absolute structure or set of instructions.

[@Michael-bt6ht]

Yeah his guitar is very nice sounding

[@jthiessen4157]

Haha the wonderful politics of living with a musician made that left hand strength technique stick in my head. His posture ... her vocal tone ... the words 'it just feels like forever' ... so good so true

[@allanvictormonteroadames7013]

Outstanding exercises bro thanks a lot, I practice another chromatic exercise and it has helped my soloing too much; I'll add your exercises little by little, I'm sure they work🎶

[@darpankonwar598]

Very helpful, thanks for sharing this 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️!!

[@VitalBigras]

Truly AWESOME, Thank You for sharing!

[@maral5677]

Super useful! Always great to listen you 🤩

[@Johnhasa1]

This is an awesome practice template!

[@Pablo-ft6un]

thx - some good stuff there. I will check out your left hand bodybulding, the root singing exercise and the fretboard mapping excercise - what I thought was a bit missing 1) triads w/ CAGED context 2) arpeggios - but perhaps this is for another lesson?

[@hannaobrc1947]

Triads are great practice. Start with simple 145 progression all over the neck slowly.. to start sound musical..love it

Great tips as always Rotem, I really enjoy this mindful approach. Off topic question: Where can I find that strap? I have always wondered. Greetings from Spain.

Great video! How do you make those drones? Seems like you’re using a pedal.

[@Anton_Chigurh_2007]

Thank you for the video, very interesting. Two questions: 1. What do you think about incorporating the Segovia Scales into practice/warmup, do you ever do that? 2. I am new to your channel, so I apologize if this has been asked a thousand times before, but what is the X cord on your headstock for, to dampen odd harmonics from above the nut? Thanks.

Great content, as always! I have a question a bit off the topic, but your alternate picking exercise got me into thinking. For fast alternate picking, are you doing the movement mostly from the wrist or the elbow? And I think not so long ago, you called your fiancé your girlfriend in a video. If you recently got engaged, then congratulations and all the best for you 2 😁

[@5geezers]

He’s playing the fast picking from the elbow with the wrist not moving but the slow/medium playing from the wrist. Watch closely, it’s easy to see. Everyone has to come up with their own RH picking approach.

What does your practice routine looks like?? let's open a little thread here

[@leogaiz7751]

1 song that I know well, 1 song that I’m learning in my skill level, 1 song that pushes my skill level. 30 mins ear training , 30 mins scale / arpeggio / voicing practice and 1 hour of jamming . Try to do this everyday and see the most progress when I keep up with it

[@wallacewizard3934]

Excercises (scales, arps, speed, being, etc. Really whatever I want to focus on that day). Then I practice some improv over some of the songs our band wrote, try and learn a new song or practice existing repertoire.

[@FabrizioPeretti]

What practice routine? LOL Learn a tune, try to play over it --> suck ---> transcribe someone good playing over it --> proceed to beginning. That's the only thing i feel works for me.

[@Johnhasa1]

Try and develop a lofi idea, practice for a bit, record. If I can't do it properly and I need to get it out, do it in parts. In other words, I haven't been practicing properly😬 Every now and then I practice reading, scales, intervals, notes on guitar, and some technique I want to learn.

[@paulkoestner1]

This is not a routine, but maybe you find that interesting. I made a "clock" with the cycle of fifths, that hangs on my wall, so i practice once one key, i turn the clock, that next time i play another key. Just helps to cover all different keys and positions. I also had the idea to make musical dice, so that two dices are for e.g. notes, the third for modes (if major, minor, dom, dim, but also maybe ionian, dorian, etc). Just would be a fun way to practice.

[@jojo-fj7lw]

To this very day i still wonder what's that red ribbon is?

[@imnothandsome4205]

thank

[@RotemSivanGuitar]

You

[@kukumuniu5658]

You know what is the saddest / weirder? For years, everyone has been repeating the same things, almost no one talks about their own, original method of learning scales and improvisation etc they keep explaining with their own words the same things. How many proprietary methods of learning do you know Rotem?
