Hey everyone, thanks for joining me for these daily workout routines! As always, you can get the GP files and the backing track through my Patreon page: www.patreon.com/rafaeltrujillo. If you want to practice these exercises at different tempos, it can be very effective to use the Guitar Pro files. That's an effective way of getting better at playing fast. Instead of increase the tempo bit by bit you can start at higher tempos and then extend the phrase bit by bit. Enjoy your practice, and let me know what you'd like to see next!
Rafael, how did you learn about pickslanting? Although I studied guitar, neither my teacher before university nor my professor at university had any knowledge of this, which I consider an essential piece of information. As a result, I stumbled upon it relatively late in my own guitar journey, but learning it helped me solve many technical difficulties. Most great players I know use it subconsciously or involuntarily. You, however, use it very intentionally, along with forearm rotation as your primary picking motion. When and how did that start to develop? How conscious were you of this at the time, and how did you practice it?
Honestly, I wasn't really aware of pickslanting until I checked it out in detail myself around 2 or 3 years ago. I've always used exercises and methods which I know from classical teachers or Martin Miller (who was a teacher of mine 10 years ago). I mainly focused on bursts and practicing certain phrases in different subdivisions and always pushing my own limits without destroying my hands physically. It involves a lot of trial and error.
Thanks for taking the time to reply! Your playing on Diluvium blew my mind back then with your control and note choices, so this is a huge pleasure for me. If I'm understanding correctly, your two-way pickslanting just developed as a way to avoid tension? I know Martin does the same, but you guys never discussed these mechanics? I find it fascinating how naturally it comes to some players, while others have to consciously grasp it first. My pickslanting evolved naturally too, but mine was always a static DWPS. Odd NPS passages were a hassle until I understood the principles, and I ended up overhauling my technique quite a bit. Do you still make adjustments like that to your technique these days? Thanks again for the time.
Hey amazing. I'm working out with your routines and I'm really happy with the results, I'd like just to comment on the fact that there are already a lot of picking workouts and still no sweep picking workouts. Are you planning on sharing sweep picking routines in the near future? keep it up with the great content man 🚀

Hey man, thanks a lot! It's just because these are requested a lot but I already have some sweep picking routines planned 🤘🏻
@@RafaelTrujilloEducation Great! I'll be ready then!
There's a method for tremolo picking but for power chords/triads... like in black metal?
It's on my list. So definitely at some point in the near future 🤘🏻
what string guage you use?
