awesome 101 ya I know same with me, what I practice is playing without the song as fast as I can then playing with the song which is way easier then after (down picking of course) but I'm starting to get better at alternate picking but I was at the same stage as you at one time so, what I do is use my fingers to alternate pick not by whole wrist

[@thatred_ej1896]

It's weird because I learned this song using all down picks and now my guitar teacher wants me to play with alternate picking, I have to know relearn the whole song

[@kevinfitzpatrick95]

John Mauer man just practice easier downpicking songs first and build up some endurance. Frayed Ends of Sanity is good one to start with and then move onto creeping death or Sanitarium or just anything slower than MoP. When you can downpick those songs no bother then move onto MoP. Currently I'm on Master of puppets. I can Play the riffs a few times down picked now... but downpicking the whole song is tuff. Getting there tho!
