Just found your channel. Super helpful! Thank you!

I practiced your lesson twice to be sure I was doing the cross picking right, fortunately I was actually doing it without even thinking! Slowing it down and focusing on the proper stroke direction made me hear the smoothness of the scale and how I can smooth out any runs I play by focusing on the basics. Thanks Aaron! Mike

Underlying physics reason alternate picking works is that it tends to minimize the net amount of accelerative force your hand need to exert, combined with minimizing the net amount of inertia your hand's motion needs to counteract, in order to execte a series of notes. It's an economically efficient way to generate hand motion at the fastest speed you can still execte accurately.

Great job Aaron. This is not the easiest subject to explain, especially the down and up strokes and why there are sometimes two down or up strokes in a row.

Thank YOU! Just some basic info that I think will help clear up a lot of confusion that people have around this topic

Hello, You have great content and are quite talented! Do you angle your pick when you play?

So I realize I’ve been using alternate picking but at times slipping in a hammered note or pull off note between a down and up stroke and not doing the two up strokes or downstrokes sandwiched around that “legato” note. I thought this was helping me go faster, and maybe it has, but not good in the long run.

Sure, and like I said, it’s not an ironclad orthodox law, but it does seem to help make the passages a lot more playable and clean when the downstrokes are on down beats and up stokes on upbeats. Thanks

i never got the tabs for this lesson would you send them to me please
