Finger Exercises

[Eric Bowen]

I was wondering if there are any good exercises you can do to stretch and loosen your fingers out? When I play my biggest issue is sometimes my fingers feel really stiff and that can lead me to struggle with speed and hitting the notes I want to play.
Also just wanted to thank Syn and Brian Sr for making this, I’ve always had an interest in learning the guitar and so far this school is doing wonders for me. Thanks so much guys!

Try alternate picking with all 4 fingers up and down the fret board. Simple but a great warm up!
