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.

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..

@@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?

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 Год назад

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

Brilliant work. I had developed some of my own before your video and all your analysis of the fingers especially the ring finger is so spot on. I used to think that I was cursed. Now I know that it is normal. Your warning is also spot on. It does hurt pretty quickly. Thank you so much.

@AdamGbl95 10 месяцев назад

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 Год назад

@namelesswanderer9315 15 дней назад

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!!

@nope3581 Год назад

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!

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.

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.

I’m a black belt in kung fu and a musician. She had me at “I was a boxer…” and sure ‘nuff, she knows stuff. “Relaxation, breathe” Thank you Lauren. I liked and subscribed.

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!

This is an awesome lesson. I asked a question about speed during your recent live video and this adds to the answer you gave me back then. You’re instructions are clear, useful and easy to understand. Thank you for what you do. 😊

OMG! It’s so good to hear the that I’m not the only person having an issue with the ring finger. Here’s the kicker though, I was born with a short ring finger, which make playing guitar even harder for me. I’m going to start this practice tonigh when I get off of work.

You're not alone John. Not by a long shot. Keep going.

@@LaurenBateman Thank you!! I knew of this practice technique but was never told to hold your fingers if you need to. I did your drill last night and had some success with my ring finger. It’s such a bummer that my ring finger is practically the same length as my pinky finger. I will not give up!
