I've played for 40 years and this is not only the best warm up and chop building exercise on TH-cam, but and amazing bridge to help "put it all together!" Don't sleep on this! It could be your lightbulb moment!
I'm only a few years behind ya, and you are spot on! Bernth is so great at the way he constructs lessons and the practice material to go with them. Being subscribed to his Patreon is far and above the best $$$ a person can spend on guitar lessons imo.
I started yesterday [sort of], but I wasn't able to do much of it Today, I spent about 4 hours getting through everything [except the last exercise, I'm too tired lol] Turns out that I'm able to do WAY more than I thought I was able to, I just need to not give up The backing track [drums + bernth playing] helps SO much I love your videos a lot, and I mean a lot a lot, they've helped me out and I've already seen improvement, even though it's just the 2nd day
Life became insane for me over the last year with work/home renovations. Finally have time to re-sub his patreon. Excited to spend my entire weekend on his page.
@@Bernthguitar Thank man! Your patreon page is great. I appreciate you, and how you breakdown seemingly unreachable goals into reachable mini-goals. Edit:Elevation is pure fire btw.
i can' even do this at 70 bpm but i finally did it at 50 bpm, its tough to do 16th (I'm thinking that's what these are) notes on a 5/8 time signature Thank you for posting this, it has been one of the best instructional videos for me and I've been self taught my whole life but never really took the time to really learn this instrument until now. Thanks again!
Been practicing this for 3 weeks now, first 2 weeks on normal speed like the video, now going for the 2 times repetition and 1.25x speed, is really really helpful! Thanks
Notation: when notating right hand (picking hand) finger picking, try employing classical guitar symbols PIMA (for thumb, index, middle and ring fingers) instead of leaving the notation blank for these hybrid picking situations. great channel -- thanx.
What i like about the exercises is that they're melodic and pleasant to listen to as go through them. I really like the Super Mario feel of block 2, its very fun.
Man this is the BEST lesson lots of different things to work on. I feel like past beginner lessons its hard to find the next step but for me this is exactly what I need on multiple different techniques more than what I even expected. This video is deffinitely leveling me up
Apart from ther alternate picking, I didn't manage to even do the slowest bpm of every exercise thank you man, you provided me a fun challenge! Let's see tomorrow day 2: - A bit of the warm-up at 70 bpm, better than yesterday - Full legato block, but I need to improve since my technique is a bit rough - Sweep still didn't manage to do it fully at 60 bpm, the last sweep is getting me - Full alternate picking, but I'm missing the transitions with my left hand, need to improve - I still need to have the Tapping block in my arms to do it with the video, still struggling with the pattern - My hybrid picking is trash. Gonna work on that. Day 3- Managed to do the warm up at 70 and 80 bpm but with some slippering Full legato block again, trying to improve the sounding of it Sweep at 60 and 80 bpm, the last measure pattern is getting me everytime Full alternate picking block, trying to correct my thumb position to ensure best performance Managed to do the full tapping block Hybrid picking is still a struggle
Wow brother you upload very nice vdos i am proud of you because i found only this channel where best workouts are given thankyou so much brother love you keep going 😊❤️
I was looking for your videos the other day but couldn’t remember your name. I was looking under Bjorne guitar lesson. Luckily this vid popped up in my suggestions today. These have been really good instructional videos good for a refresher after not playing for a while.
Any tips, tricks, advice, or exercises on keeping the pinky finger closer to the fretboard? Apparently mine likes to get fancy like it's drinking tea and hangs way out in the air away from the fretboard. I've struggled to correct it and it prevents me from performing quicker transitions.
day 1: 70bpm. - Was challenging getting my right hand hitting the right strings. Point of the exercise lol but 70bpm was challenging but was able to complete it - Hard trying to focus on the notes I needed to play next
For the first exercise, if you need more of a challenge, try using fingers 2 3 and 4 instead of 1 2 3 for the whole thing. This ensures the pinky gets a workout too
I've been practicing this daily for well over 2 MONTHS and still am only able to play the first 70bpm exercise, and the first block #4 exercise, and only if slowed down to 75% video speed. I think I have a disability.
Really nice workout I will definitely put this in my practicing routine. Part 2 reminds me a bit of the SuperMario cave theme. You could add another guitar to do the coin sound 😁
Yo bernth , thank you for the lesson. It would be helpful if you could post which lesson to search for on patreon because it is a maze from hell to navigate and find a lesson there. Thanks.
Hi Bernth, apologies - what is the best way to orient one's pick for both ascending and descending arpeggios in this please (thinking about pick-escape in particular when moving between strings)? I've tried different options but can't quite find the optimal! Really appreciate your time and help. Thank you!

Hey man really thank you this is what I needed I'm new on the channel and I'm trying to do the others routines that you have in the channel, but I wonder for how long I have to do them? I was thinking on doing each them for a month but dunno if it's much time, can you tell me please?
I heard that you are not using a real pick, that it's just a piece of air you hold between your fingers and that's what makes it so smooth, is it true?
I've been playing for 2 years. I've got to the point where I seem stuck and can't get any better. So frustrating that no matter how much time I put into it I just can't seem to improve. I practice everyday for an hour or even 2. I originally started playing guitar back in 1979 but stopped after a few months. Then in 2013 I decided to buy another guitar but only played it once a week. But I retired from work 2 years ago and had the time to study self taught. Since then I've nearly spent everyday practicing. But now I seem to have hit a brick wall and don't seem to improve any. I can't seem to speed up. I've watched many of your videos and you make it look so easy. I've done fingers exercises but with no improvement. Any advice would be much appreciated because I don't want to give up on my playing.
i see what you did there to avoid gettin stuck in the strings. i saw a slanting video guide of a guy studying michail angelo batio slanting picking technique. was really cool. you know it?

25 for me and I play very well. To people wanting to learn this it's a fantastic lesson. Boy wish I had you tube growing up.
You've played guitar longer than I've been alive, and I'm 34. That's pretty impressive lol
Day one: 1st excersize 70bpm 0.75 speed
Day 2: 1st excersize almos 1:00
I started yesterday [sort of], but I wasn't able to do much of it
Today, I spent about 4 hours getting through everything [except the last exercise, I'm too tired lol]
Turns out that I'm able to do WAY more than I thought I was able to, I just need to not give up
The backing track [drums + bernth playing] helps SO much
I love your videos a lot, and I mean a lot a lot, they've helped me out and I've already seen improvement, even though it's just the 2nd day
Keep at it!
@@dunnorly hi it's way easier now :)
I'm currently tackling the tornado of souls solo :D
@@nicrevenhow r u now?
Man, I love your workouts more then most songs!😆 Your workouts are so creative and musical It blows my mind.
To be honest trying to memorize the notes and the picking patterns and everything is harder than actually doing it lol
Life became insane for me over the last year with work/home renovations.

Ohh, I'll definetly check this out, something small you can play in a little pause or when you don't know what to do is always nice to have ^^
Bernth is definitely my favorite guitar instructor named Bernth on youtube
This is absolutely fantastic for my little fingers! You are an excellent teacher! Danka... Progress 🎉
Even tho, this exercise targeted more on upper intermediate level, im gonna dig into it with my beginner intermediate.
Accidentally had this on 2X speed, thought I sucked! Slowed it down, I still suck! 🤘🤣
i end up spending 30 minutes trying to get the muscle memory for these exercises before i can try faster tempos
@@0_OI544 same bro
btw, how's your guitar progress going ?
@@ajbs_alexo_713 trying to practice once a week level
🤘👽 i dig it!!! About to leave work early just to shred!!!
lol nice
i can' even do this at 70 bpm but i finally did it at 50 bpm, its tough to do 16th (I'm thinking that's what these are) notes on a 5/8 time signature

Berth is the only person that can give you a 10 minute workout in 9:45.
Oh I need this!!! Thanks Bernth!!!
Again you are a truly under rated guitarist/musician bro.
I’m grateful for these lessons!!
Amazing exercise. Doesn’t sound boring like other workouts.
Man this is the BEST lesson lots of different things to work on. I feel like past beginner lessons its hard to find the next step but for me this is exactly what I need on multiple different techniques more than what I even expected. This video is deffinitely leveling me up
I dig the fact that you did the alternate picking in 5/8, which challenged my brain a good bit 😂
Apart from ther alternate picking, I didn't manage to even do the slowest bpm of every exercise
thank you man, you provided me a fun challenge! Let's see tomorrow
day 2:
- A bit of the warm-up at 70 bpm, better than yesterday
- Full legato block, but I need to improve since my technique is a bit rough
- Sweep still didn't manage to do it fully at 60 bpm, the last sweep is getting me
- Full alternate picking, but I'm missing the transitions with my left hand, need to improve
- I still need to have the Tapping block in my arms to do it with the video, still struggling with the pattern
- My hybrid picking is trash. Gonna work on that.
Day 3-
Managed to do the warm up at 70 and 80 bpm but with some slippering
Full legato block again, trying to improve the sounding of it
Sweep at 60 and 80 bpm, the last measure pattern is getting me everytime
Full alternate picking block, trying to correct my thumb position to ensure best performance
Managed to do the full tapping block
Hybrid picking is still a struggle

Love your videos bro always super helpful and informative 🤘🔥

Dang this one is sick!
day 1: 70bpm.
- Was challenging getting my right hand hitting the right strings. Point of the exercise lol but 70bpm was challenging but was able to complete it
- Hard trying to focus on the notes I needed to play next
Dear Mr. Benth, I found your lesson extremely helpful, thanks. Could you please make a video on tipps for tapping or hybrid picking?
Thanks bernth
This helps me alot
Muchas gracias por tus vídeos geniales.
The second one made me laugh. It's funny how music can do that. Can make me cry too,
(especially when I try to play like you). Thank-you, as always.
I really love Ibanez guitars
The best tutorial ever
This is great.
Wow 👌 👌 👌 🙏
For the first exercise, if you need more of a challenge, try using fingers 2 3 and 4 instead of 1 2 3 for the whole thing. This ensures the pinky gets a workout too
five of the eight arpeggios use the pinky :) but what you suggested is also a very good idea tbh
@@skorpioh3811 ah got it. I haven't made it past the first one lol
Thank you! BERNTH!
Nice 5/8 warm-up!
Yes!
Great video as always, my progress would have been so far behind without your exercises
Wow... Amazing my friend... I like it...
Love is for you💐💐

I've been practicing this daily for well over 2 MONTHS and still am only able to play the first 70bpm exercise, and the first block #4 exercise, and only if slowed down to 75% video speed. I think I have a disability.
Or you're playing with the wrong technique or pushing too hard
Que bueno 👏👏👏👌🏻💯🎸
Really nice workout I will definitely put this in my practicing routine. Part 2 reminds me a bit of the SuperMario cave theme.
You could add another guitar to do the coin sound 😁

Yo bernth , thank you for the lesson. It would be helpful if you could post which lesson to search for on patreon because it is a maze from hell to navigate and find a lesson there. Thanks.
what i should search for in the patreon filters to get this video and workout files there? Thank you
it has taken me 3 days just to learn the first exercise. Maybe lightening fast fingers in 6 months for me 😛
Thanks for the cool lesson.
What software do you use to add the transcription of the notation to the video?

D1: 70bpm after some warm up before. My wrist is dying and me too: I've found the nemesis.

Dude I need to start working on this stuff but I been trying to learn more about logic here lately
I've been playing for 2 years. I've got to the point where I seem stuck and can't get any better. So frustrating that no matter how much time I put into it I just can't seem to improve. I practice everyday for an hour or even 2. I originally started playing guitar back in 1979 but stopped after a few months. Then in 2013 I decided to buy another guitar but only played it once a week. But I retired from work 2 years ago and had the time to study self taught. Since then I've nearly spent everyday practicing. But now I seem to have hit a brick wall and don't seem to improve any. I can't seem to speed up. I've watched many of your videos and you make it look so easy. I've done fingers exercises but with no improvement. Any advice would be much appreciated because I don't want to give up on my playing.
i see what you did there to avoid gettin stuck in the strings. i saw a slanting video guide of a guy studying michail angelo batio slanting picking technique. was really cool. you know it?
should i focus on bringing one exercise to speed at a time (per day) or should i do all of them per day, how many exercises per day is too much?
Im doing one pr day for 10mins and then extending the 14days to 86days.
0:51 - 70bpm
How many bars/beats are in the 1st exercise?
Man I have a show on Friday, 2 weeks is too much time!
0:51
what if i was possibly missing my e string and dont live close to guitar stores currently
Full Workout Completed within an hour😊😊
For the finger picking, why don't you use "m" as in "pimae"?
