240 is starting to drive me crazy 😂😂 Thank you this has been the guide I've been looking for

Dude this is GOLD. So great to see a fantastic player like yourself sharing your wisdom.

I think this series will help me get out of a rut. Cannot wait for the rest of the videos! Thank you! 🤘🤘🤘

Appreciate it once again Ozz. Found this old Carlos Cavazo run and it's been eating me up for a week. The eights hit the spot. 🤘

Thank you for the free lessons. You’re a blessing to all of us on our guitar playing journey.

Of all the yt channels that taught speed guitar that i browsed, for a beginner like me, your videos are by far the best. In just one video that i practiced with i have got to see faster improvements. On top of that this is all free. Salute to you Sir!

Thank you very much for your method for learning speed guitar

This is by far the best explanation on KZfaq

so simple and impirtent. Thank you for lesson!!!

This is exactly what I need. Can't wait to get started!😊

OMG!! I really NEED this! thank you so much. I'm currently stuck. Thank you!!

Thank you my man very helpful as a beginning that can't afford guitar lessons ❤

Subbed. This is exactly what I need to work on. Thanks for uploading

I am new here and cannot believe these are all free thank you🙆🎶🙏💯🙋🎸

Beklenen video serisi geldi. Sağolasın.

Insane..very inspiring! Thank you.

Thank you Oz great lesson and something structured to stick to over the next few weeks

Ok my start was yesterday great video by the way it‘s also much fun to practice it think you do it you get it . Thanks go on with stuff👍

This series is so awesome so plz make more series related to different different guitar playing techniques i will do every day practice Thank u so much

Gold channel and picking lessons! Thank you 🙏

This is really great. I am just starting to play again after a lengthy (non-guitar related) injury and this is a great exercise to add to my recovery. I got to 120 BPM cleanly and pushed to 140 and then went back from 60 to 110 to wind down. Thank you very much for this.

I just finished watching the video - excellent, just excellent!

dont practice mistakes because you will learn them.

This is great. Thanks.

Muitíssimo obrigado! Parabéns pelo trabalho 😎😎😎😎 vou começar já!

Awesome! Can’t wait to give this a go 💪

Thanks @Ozzguitar for this series of videos! I did week 1. Practicing 40-50 min I have managed from 110 at the beginning of the week until 150 at the end. Looking forward to see the progress after 4 weeks. Straight to Week 2 now! :)

I have been doing a similar exercise for a few months, I started at 40bpm as I am a complete beginner. And this works, may not work as fast as one would expect but it's all about the consistency and patience. I can do this comfortably at 140bpm and push upto 160!

I have been playing guitar from 2020. I have hardly practiced in the past couple of years. I have been trying to be consistent in my practice routine as I used to be earlier (I used to practice 2 to 3 hours daily in 2020 and 2021 and I majorly played fingerstyle.). I started sincere regular practice from yesterday (19/03/2024) and I have been following a few warm up and alternate picking exercises. This video of Ozz and the other two videos he has recommended made me realise that my picking technique was wrong. Today I came to realise that I have been playing alternate picking 'wrong' all along. I used to play economy picking instead of alternate picking. For the first time today since I have been playing guitar, I came to realise that my picking technique was wrong all along and I was using my wrist and not my hand to switch strings and that's why I was stuck and not able to increase my speed. Finally I have understood the mechanics of alternate picking and feeling a lot more confident. From today onwards, I'll be updating my practice sessions here in the comments. Thanks a lot Ozz for your videos, they help a lot! Keep up the good work.

goood exercise, i have been strugiling with speed lately and i am a lot better now

Great video

Decided I need to really hone in my picking technique because I've gotten stuck around 140-150bpm 16th notes for over a decade now. Really focusing on moving my wrist, not my forearm, and keeping as little tension as possible in my wrist. I'm going to do this 4 week program and focus on building muscle memory to stay relaxed at higher bpm. Today my wrist just wanted to lock up and get sloppy at 160 bpm.

DUUUUUUUDDEEEE YOURE INSANNE!!! being able to alternate pick that quick, but more importantly that CLEAN is insane. You've really inspired me to go for that next level of playing, thank you, really great teacher!

This is the way to speed up our picking technique .Thank you sir superb

This one’s great Oz ! Will be interesting to see the progression after 4 weeks.

Awesome as always. 🤘

🫡 awesome video. Part of my practice routine now. Thx

perfect program for picking technique❤‍🔥❤‍🔥❤‍🔥❤‍🔥

Awesome lesson like usual ❤🎉

I can’t wait to get home from work and try this

Hi there. Been playing since 1987, right handed. Since 2005 left handed. I prefer left as its easier to get new ideas and because playing right handed is too easy physically its harder to form muscle memory. Second, ive recently started using delrin 0.71 mm medium picks. Yes its harder to play fast but this helps the fretting hand keep up and remember plus the notes sound better. Two days ago i used the jazz 3 pick again. Didnt like the tone and how it feels. I remember using heavy picks for several decades and that coupled with not holding the pick correct was frustrating(you can hear me playing on the youtube channel right handed using a thick pick and holding the pick with index and thumbtips). It amazes me that no one ever corrected me on my picking guess they thought i was stupid, didnt care, or wanted me to suffer. Theo Ziras video fixed my picking and Bernth perfected the technique its been one month now for holding the pick correctly. I use speed drills like these to come up with new odd sequences then i add those to what i can remember. I go back and forth between new ideas and drills, as speed comes with time. Last thing, i suspect Yngwie used medium picks early on because its like weight lifting for the hands listen to his early recordings. Likely he used heavy picks after he drove into a tree in '87, but not before then theres a pick delay. Being able to pick easier is not always the objective because once you can guitar isnt as much fun, thats why i started playing left handed(in my videos on youtube you can hear how hard i hit the strings right handed i cannot modulate the force which sucks as its like a hammer which wears out all picks easily), its harder(playing left) and likely suits my wiring better(my dad is a leftie and likely i shouldve been) although playing right is easier mentally(my left hand wears out fret wires quick on guitars) it is like staring at a brick wall for getting new ideas. I prefer new ideas and creativity and difficulty playing fast.

Ridiculously awesome. Ridiculously fun. Bruh, thanks!🎉

Thanks for your sharing my friend...

Thank u Sir and God Bless.

Really it helps a lot. Thanks.

Great lesson. Thank you

頑張ります

Thank you so much for this. Im definitely going to practise this. You have another subscriber.

thank you sooo much !

Thanks!

Dropping another comment to keep engagement up: got it more cleanly up to about 160, fudged it at around 190. This really does kmprove your picking! Thank you again.

been= doin this every day for a week. its helping A LOT. gonna be a while before im video 2 ready though. Thanks!

great as always 🤘

Thanks a bunch Ozz! I have been stuck on Petrucci's technique for years. Gotta try it now

Ang laking tulong sa amin ang mga tutorials mo bro. 👍👏👏👏🔥

This is truly amazing

am in and subscribed!!

Thank you sir

As an beginner/intermediate I did 110 without Problems on the first day. Lets see were we heading ✌🏼

wow thanks !

Day 1: 110 BPM cleanly, 120 BPM reached but not clean. (30-45 mins) Day 2: a bit better than yesterday. My pinky was hurting a bit so the practice session was short (20-30mins) Day 3: 120 BPM cleanly, 130 BPM sometimes clean sometimes not. Can't do 140 BPM cleanly at all. Day 3months: Practiced many other exercises in the mean time aside this. Learned lots of other stuffs too. Got my pinky finger warmed up, and improved my right hand control by this time. I can do 140 bpm cleanly and easily now. Kinda struggling with 150 bpm.

I am returning to guitar (4/25/2024) after taking the last 15 years off. As I've dove back in (head first), I've been trying to reinvent my picking and get my left and right hand on the same page again. I stumbled on this 4-week program a couple of days ago. I'll detail my Journey. I appreciate the way this is laid out. 5/22/2024 - Day 1 - I managed to get to 130bpm once... 5/23/2024 - Day 2 - I did one clean 140... 5/24/2024 - Day 3 - I did a clean 150... 160/170 just out of reach cleanly... 5/25/2024 - Day 4 - Clean 150 still not getting 160/170 5/26/2023 - Day 5 - Clean 150 still not getting 160/170 5/27/2024 - Day 6 - missed a day (holiday) 5/28/2024 - Day 7 - Clean 160 - 170/180 not yet 5/29/2024 - Day 8 - Clean 160 - 170 not clean, 180 getting closer 5/30/2024 - Day 9 - Clean 160 - 170 not clean, 180 getting closer 5/30/2024 - Day 10 - Clean 170 - 180 not clean, 190 out of reach currently 5/31/2024 - Day 11 - Clean 170 - 180 not clean 6/01/2024 - Traveling Day Off 06/02/2024 - Day 12 Clean 180 - 190 not clean 06/03/2024 - Day 13 Clean 180 - 190 not clean - but something is starting to happen... where I have spurts of shred, lol 06/04/2024 - Day 14 Clean 180 - 190 / 200 just out of reach clean 06/05/2024 - Day 15 Clean 190 - 200+ Not yet 06/06/2024 - Day 16 Clean 190 - 200+ Not yet - That being said; I used to struggle with 160/170 and I am doing them alot easier now. 06/07/2024 - Day 17 Clean 190 - 200+ Not yet - I can tell I will have to put in ALOT of work to keep building speed. :) 06/08/2024 - Day 17 Clean 190 - 200+ Not yet 06/09/2024 - Day 17 Clean 190 - 200+ Not yet 06/10/2024 - Day 17 Clean 190 - 200+ Not yet - at a 1/2 hour a day, I seem to have really hit a wall around 190/200... 190 I can get clean, but 200 is still just out of reach completely clean... - I may need to spend more time than a 1/2 hour a day.

Man I mainly play rhythms, and just recently tried learning some leads and this is definitely gonna pay off. I’m siting at 120 BPM. Only tried for three days, I can keep up with 130 but it’s not clean enough yet. Hardest part for me is my picking hand I just can’t get the two in sync

I NEED THIS!!!

Nice one..

I am an experienced guitar player and found this video. I wish it would have been around a long time ago because I wouldn't have had to learn the hard way. For beginner guitarists, this video will help you to learn faster alternate picking without having to learn how to do it on your own (save you a lot of time and you don't have to go back and relearn to fix mistakes you are making). I highly recommend this video - and thank Ozz for putting it up. Great video lesson!

Thank you OZ! cqnt wait to get started on this

Wowwww. Thanks for this!!!

I've seen that you push up 10 by 10 in the metronom, I'ts hard for some to do that, but it's good to see/hear that is possible.

trying to fit this into my daily routine, can do 220 now. Thanks for this

Hallo Ozz, das ist wirklich eine tolle Übung, auch wenn ich nicht annähernd so schnellen Fortschritt habe wie andere hier ;) Man kann verschiedene Sachen verbessern. Zählen, Handhaltung der rechten Hand, damit die Finger nicht zu weit von den Saiten entfernt sind, das Pendeln der rechten Hand während gleichzeitig der Rest des Armes ruhig bleibt. Ich feiere dieses Video und Danke Dir!

Hi Ozz ! I am on my third day of the first week. I have alteady noticed many imprivements in my playing. I can already play it up to 230 BPM Your vídeos have helped me to become a better guitarist!

So helpful thank you 🤙 only thing I couldn't figure out why I was messing up timing was the up stroke on the first note was on down stroke starting but then it changed to up stroke after the repeat 8-10-12 😅

Mais um inscrito aqui do Brasillll Top demais vou começar devagar pra intender esse ritmo

Empecé con los ejercicios y están geniales

Alright 150 is now feeling much better and I can get 160 but it feels awkward. Definitely making progress.

Bro this works! Not even a week and I can’t believe 140bpm was my initial limit it feels so slow now.

This exercise looks great. I just don't have a guitar nearby. Can't wait to play it on the guitar. Thanks

day 2: Actually restarted when i messed up and got to 190 first time through, 170 the second lol Thanks

Super 🤘 Great exercise

You deserve to have million subscribers!!!

unbelievable

That's rad! 💥💥💥

Day 7 190 . i take a little pause then back again this week. Just to avoid tendinitis.

This is the best. I've only been playing for 6 minutes, never picked up a guitar before and already at 160bpm very comfortably. It also added 2" to my penis. Best lesson on youtube!

i can get up to 200 bpm as is, going to work at getting the rest of the way! good stuff, thanks and following for more!

Day 3 : Clean up to 110 bpm with progress on 120bpm, doing it sometimes but very messy and realized the issue is in the picking hand speed and some synchronization issue when switching strings

180 bpm day 1

Me watching this video: "ah wow, he's made it to 200 bpm, surely he's done now..."

day 7: kept making a mistake at 150, then around 180, then 210. 220 was tough again. I think I've hit a bit of a plateau. I'm looking forward to finally changing it up tomorrow. Week 2...

Im proud on me to reach the 150 - 160 after 2 days, I'll do this exercise for 5 days and switch then to part two; thank you for this great video!

First off, thank you!! This feels like a very good exercise! Day one: 170 bpm in control. I feel like it's not the time yet to push much faster. Let's see how it goes tomorrow!

160, thank you man for you doing this

Day 1:170 bpm Day 2:170 bpm Day 3:180 bpm Day4:180 bpm Day5:180bpm Day 6:180 bpm

Great tutorial! Day one 130; Day 2 200. Just waiting for day 3!

Day one starting at 130 cleanly. Pushing 140

Please create a program on how to master legato! This would help me so much

Kardeşim bir Türk olarak seninle gurur duyuyorum. Yaptığın iş uluslararası standartlarda. Durma, devam et... 🤘

hi ,i give it a try. i'm at abaut 110 now
