For any tips on daily exercise routine, I'm looking for a more structured approach to
warmups and maybe playing scales.
Jensen.
Okay.
So when it comes to a warmup routine, I have a little bit of a controversial opinion about this.
Oh, this is nice.
Here we go [Gb] again.
Oh, right.
You all keep asking me back on this show.
That's right.
That's right.
I'm going to get muted.
I'm going to get muted.
But for me personally, it's spending a little bit less time warming up.
So it's picking one thing to do that is actually kind of complicated, that forces you to slow
down and think about it.
So for instance, there's this planting exercise that I know some of you are familiar with
where [E] let's just say you're here on the one, two, three, and four strings, frets, I mean,
[Ab] and then you plant a finger.
So I'm going to plant my middle finger [A] on the third string, second fret, [F] and then do
a permutation [Ab] while [D] [Eb] keeping your finger [Gb] planted.
So I'm [Bb] doing one, [C] three, [F] four, [G] one, three, [Ab] four.
But you see [Gb] how it's forcing me to go really, really slow and think about what I'm doing.
And you'll see that within like, literally, I can already feel my muscles starting to get warm.
So I'm less likely to recommend just playing [C] through your scales and then doing the quasi
chromatic and doing all that stuff.
It doesn't mean that it's bad.
But me personally, I like doing something that is actually very difficult, that I have
to go slow and really think about my coordination because [B] that's what gets my muscles warm.
So that's what I have to say.
I know I'm going to get some haters about it.
That's a novel approach.
I like that.
I like that.
Dylan, do you have something on that?
Well, what Jensen just did is actually on Fender Play.
It's warm up on one, two, three, four, five, and six strings.
So there's good news there.
What Jensen's talking about is building saliency, basically in your brain saying, this is important.
This is challenging.
It's metabolically challenging to my brain.
So I have to use a lot of the glucose that's available.
And I'm going to create a neural connection between my brain and my hand.
[C] And that's how things get learned in neurobiology.
Thanks for checking out [C] this Fender Play lesson excerpt.
Now take what you've learned and continue your guitar learning journey with Fender [D] Play,
a completely customizable learning experience for anyone who wants to learn to play [C] guitar,
