    In this Student Spotlight lesson, I will help CJ develop a faster, more relaxed rapid downstrokes technique.
    I noticed a couple of things with his right hand that he can probably quickly adjust that will relax his hand much more.
    The key to this technique is simply having as light and relaxed picking hand as possible. When you reach that point, the hand feels like it is just lightly bouncing. Keep in mind though, you are not LITERALLY bouncing. Instead, it feels like when you hit the string light enough, the string's resistance can help propel your hand back into position above the string again.
    I will mention a few tips to get to this level of relaxation, including practicing standing up and focusing on finding any tension that can be occurring from your upper back, through your shoulder, down your arm and into your hand and fingers.
    I hope this helps CJ! Your right hand just needs some slight tweaks but your fret-hand looks perfect!
    Carl...

    Definitely agree with the standing position being easier, picking arm is much more relaxed when it's not curled up over the guitar.

    instead of standing up, he could hold the guitar in the classical position. That's how i practice and it helps a lot.

    Thanks alot for Your videos! I love it.
    I have a question (sorry for my English):
    I train downpicking by playing some rifs on different speed (150~190 bpm). All time I try to keep my arm relaxed. After aprox 1 hour muscles of forearm and wrist (closer to the little finger) become tense, out of strength. Is it ok that I feel tense in my wrist after long workout?

    It is disturbing, that youtube sent my old account into a limbo death, with undue reason, so I deleted it.
    In so doing, all of my previous comments have also been deleted.
    All of that undeserved Negativity that I have suffered at the fingertips of the jack booted, youtube gestapo, aside, I shall continue to endeavor to Enlighten Everyones day with Humor and Snark, just as I have before, and as always, I shall remain Faithful to the Truth!
    Thank you for your patientce in this aweful incident brought about by the absolutely unfair and biased actions of rhose that run youtube !
    Yes !
    They should be flogged, but they will skate away, scot free, as usual!
