[@HansOellerich]

I've been playing guitar for over 30 years. I've been a professional guitarist for 24 years. I just did this exercise and it made me feel like I've never picked up the instrument in my life. Thank you!! I will be doing this daily from now on.

[@LaurenBateman]

Same! I had been playing for maybe 10 years and I felt like I had never played before.

[@IV_VOID]

How’s the results ? i’m intrigued how much you’ve improved by this haha

[@HansOellerich]

Actually, smartie. I've been doing this everyday and I feel like it's contributing to some increased cordination, and control in my playing. Whatever works for a person. Have a nice life.

[@IV_VOID]

@@HansOellerich smartie ? not sure what you mean by that but i’m glad to hear man , I’ve also started trying this exercise everyday. so 🤷🏽‍♂️ we’ll see how that goes for me.

[@tochidhaliwal6440]

Good job

[@joemck74]

This channel should be bigger. No self-promotion. No filler. No rambling stories. No dramatic lighting or obscuring camera-angles. Just a tutor teaching *genuinely* easier songs in a clear and logical way.

[@LaurenBateman]

Aww thanks Joe! Appreciate the kind words.

[@jed88]

Yep. Agreed. I think it's the approach and the true hidden intention. Instead of 'I'm going to teach you something that I know. Look at me!' kind of separated approach. Or that talking into empty space while looking at a camera vibe, sorta hollow. Lauren is more personable and inclusive. Kind of a let's learn together, I'm here to play along a with you, chilled. It's a subtle difference, but boy, is it a difference.

I’ve been playing guitar for 97 years and this exercise really aggravates my wife so I’m going to do it every day.

GAWD!! Can we not stop with the BS upside down tabs?! Up = 🔼 Down = 🔽. There’s not a single musician past, present or future; who didn’t learn the previous sentence before they ever picked up an instrument! But just to be clear, great exercise! It’s now a daily. 🎶

I’m a beginner player and this has made a huge difference. I struggle much less with the chord changes. Thank you!!

[@LaurenBateman]

Happy to help! You're welcome!

[@RealPeterGunn]

Lauren, I'm an older student (63), and this exercise is wonderful for arthritic joints in the fingers. It keeps my fingers somewhat limber and as we all know, if the joint is moving, fresh blood flows to it and keeps them healthy! Thank You for this useful exercise..

[@LaurenBateman]

Peter you're so welcome. Glad it helps!

[@wildalbalass4867]

Im 63 too. I started to learn 9 months ago. Lauren is most encouraging and helpful. How are you getting on?

[@RealPeterGunn]

@@wildalbalass4867 After the initial painful fingers and joints, not too bad. I honestly never knew there was this much involved in the guitar. I always thought it was extremely difficult, and some parts are but for the most I think it a person's love of music that carries them through. Barr chords are my biggest problem. I just can't seem to get them right. Are you doing well?

[@TheRealThomasPaine1776]

I'm 61, and I hope you're right!

[@Ice-Fall]

@@RealPeterGunn Cut out all processed sugar foods, and your arthrictic condition will subside over time. Give yourself a one month challenge on this. Includes sugar in coffee.

[@vacuumelite2065]

I am a Bass player getting into guitar. One week. This is an exercise that yields results because it focuses on the mechanism of chord changing....it is a game changer. 20 is Plenty. Relax. No forcing. Thank you for this gift. 😊❤️

[@LaurenBateman]

Well said! 100%

[@HansOellerich]

I'm still at it. This will remain part of my warm up because it really does work. Rock on!

[@Xeon-q6z]

Hey I wanna know hows ur progress? Going good?

[@27yearcoach]

67 y/o here. This exercise is great. Thank you Lauren for this! Very helpful. In fact I appreciate your lesson aimed at older players. Don't know that anyone else is helping older folks like this.

[@LaurenBateman]

Glad it was helpful!

[@DwightP980]

I watched this about three weeks ago and did great with my 1st and 2nd fingers, fair with my 4th and figured my 3rd finger was never going to work any better than what it did which was pathetic at best. I did every step as you described in the video, even assisting my 3rd finger from the 3rd to the 6th and 1st strings for a couple of days. After the first week all my fingers were working much better with the 3rd still a bit slower and today all four fingers are moving great independently of each other. This will be a part of my warmup and stretching exercises for as long as I'm around to play. Thank you, Lauren!

[@LaurenBateman]

That's awesome, sounds like you're off to a good start. Definitely keep this in until you get those fingers moving faster

[@somarriba333]

I LOVE this. I've been playing for 30 years and teaching 20. I've never seen this exercise. I'm happy to see that I had no issues with my 3rd finger but I can feel that it's more challenging. I can feel that burn on hand AND my forearm. I did start thinking about overdoing it so I'm glad you mentioned that. I will start sharing this with my students.

[@LaurenBateman]

Glad it was helpful!

[@somarriba333]

@@LaurenBateman If you count the 20 per finger as one set, how many sets do you think is good if you spread it through out the day? Is one set per day good?

[@AdamGbl95]

So important! If this works, you're a hero. I'm eager to get back into guitar myself, and I know one of the most frustrating things for me was the lack of flexibility in the fingers and was disappointing when trying to play chords with uncomfortable shapes. So crucial to really have the basics down and free up your "toolbox/resources" first. A capable and resourceful guitarist is a confident and less frustrated guitarist (as I'd say it).

[@stoopotts6908]

Great finger exercise! You've addressed another one of my challenges: my fourth and fifth fingers don't seem to want to stretch much. I will give this exercise a try!

[@LaurenBateman]

You can do it!

Starting this exercise right now. I am excited to see some results in 1 or 2 weeks! Thanks for sharing, Lauren! :)

[@LaurenBateman]

You got this!

[@nope3581]

Quick Update. I start to see a little bit of a difference in my pinky, which was stiff and not really able to move around freely or even stretch up to the 1st string. My ringfinger, to my own surprise, was doing alright from the get-go. It feels easier to change chords now (which I also still practice a lot). For now, this exercise does make a difference! I can also recommend doing the spider exercise and it's vast amount of variations, but the best I can recommend, is to play scales, for a musical approach. Choose a key and practice e.g. pentatonic, Blues and major scales in an alternating way. It's fun!

[@logjpg]

@@nope3581 any updates?

[@nope3581]

​​​@@logjpg I don't do this exercise regularly anymore. I feel like, the more you play chords changes the faster you eventualy get. I do variations of the spider exercise on a daily basis now, which feels great :)

[@mrzedlyt]

ah, that darn ring finger: commitment, responsibility; no wonder it leads the pinky and the up-yours astray, but faithful practice leads to a harmonious union....thanks for the exercise, Lauren.

[@LaurenBateman]

Good luck with it!!

[@johnskerlec9663]

This is a fantastic tip Lauren. While I have developed great independence with my fingers in many styles, I now find after seeing the sheet music to Paganini's Caprices only recently I am considering how to apply personal practice techniques to attempt to learn some of those passages. I already can see how through your lesson I can extend my practice. Thanks for the upload.

Incase you're wondering, this works. I started doing this three days ago and have slready noticed small improvements!

[@zubunapy]

Thank you very much for this exercise! I´ve been playing guitar for 19 years and never heard of this exercise befor. It´s great and i love it. I was training my ring finger with some exercise i created on my own: Let your fingers touch your palm. Now raise your middle finger. Well... as i think about it, you better don´t practise in public^^ Lower the middle finger and raise the ring finger. Lower the ring finger and raise your middle finger. Do this for 20s. This shoud be enough. So 1 and 4 are always on the palm. You Raise 2,3,2,3,2,3,2,3... I call it cycling. After a few days you might notice that your fingers become more independent.

[@LaurenBateman]

Yes! You got this.

[@LeathurRokk]

This is definitely gonna be helpful to me. I started playing guitar back when I was 11 but i did not resume playing until I was given an acoustic guitar towards the end of the summer. I played for tips on the street from day 1 but it is freezing cold outside so i am forced to practice at home and not getting tips for it. ( yes I know enough chords to not totally stink). This is a good exercise. Thank you!

Lauren you are such a compliment to my teacher for guitar. You give only what is needed and never fluff. I love what you are doing in this extremely competitive market of guitar instructors. Keep up the great work and thank you. That's a great exercise and you are right - this is one you don't want to overdue. I have one small request -> Father and Daughter by Paul Simon. I can't figure out that riff at the beginning of the song. It's definitely a scale but it's not obvious to me. Thanks (oh and it's a great song too)

[@LaurenBateman]

Thank you for the recommendation. I get lots of song requests so I cannot guarantee that I will get to it, but I will definitely add it to my list.

[@colorfullyme]

I didnt start learning guitar to help cope with anxiety, I just want to make music. But relaxation and releasing tension is something I really struggle with. I think guitar will really help me with this. It gives me a positive motivation to relax and takes the focus off of my inner issues. Thank you for the lesson!

[@LaurenBateman]

Happy to help!

[@pedaleurdecharme1023]

I have seen a few videos so far and I must say that you have a lot of knowledge. The fact that you are willing to show us this all for free is an added bonus. Years ago I have had five teachers that let me play with the right arm in 45 degrees and closed with a fist. So I got pain between thumb and index finger. Not able to play anything! Move faster one said but I couldn''t. Nowadays I can play this song accurate. Unfortunately I developed chronical RSI/CANS so I don't know how it is to play healthy and I have a lot of pain and failure. Most courses have nothing included regarding technique. Thanks again.

[@LaurenBateman]

This is a cool exercise. I haven’t seen this one before. Great advice about tension too. I’ve spent at least half and maybe two thirds of the last 48 years strangling my guitar neck. A lighter touch makes for quicker hands.

[@andrewwasson6153]

@@LaurenBateman It’s absolutely helpful. I’ll definitely be doing it every day as part of my practice. On day one I had to move my rind finger with my picking hand to get the motion right but today I had some muscle memory locked in and could do it unassisted. I’ve been playing lead guitar long enough that the tendon thing doesn’t affect my fingers but to tell my ring finger to make movements it’s not used to making was pretty humbling. Thanks again.

[@namelesswanderer9315]

What helped me was a few variations. Sorry for textwall. 1. I put all fingers on G string, one finger per fret. I move first finger to top string, then bottom, then top, back to bottom, I do it 20 times, then back to G. I do this on each finger. For my first week or so, I had to use my other hand to help move a finger or hold a finger in place while another finger moves. 2. I curl one finger onto my palm. Then I slowly bend/straighten my other fingers. I have to use my other hand to help. THIS IS IT! I WAS TRYING TO FIND THIS VIDEO, FORGETTING IT WAS YOU!! THANK YOU FOR THIS, YOU SAVED MY DEAD HANDS!! I've been telling everyone about this for about 6 months now, but I forgot the video. I bookmarked it and will post this whenever I need to. Thank you!!

Idk if im doing it right. Muscle in my wrist moves when moving my pinky. Wrist moves a tiny bit overall but not like what’s shown in the video. It also hurts but not a lot. Is the wrist supposed to not move at all or is it okay to move slightly as long as youre not depending on it to reach the strings?

Wrist would eventually move 😂 But what's to do is that let your fingers feel comfortable with the stretches , don't force ...

Ideally, the wrist should not move.

i play guitar for only 3 months and didnt have much trouble at all doing this. Maybe because I'm left handed but I play regular guitar. The ring finger was a bit of struggle though but I think can manage to make it fast in a few training sessions! Thanks for the video!

Thanks for watching! Keep playing!
