Hey Muris, I hope all is well for you these days.
I just wanted to pass this along ... ever since I studied your lessons on Legato and Picking, I find that for every new lick I'm practicing, I always practice it with both AP and legato techniques, using metronome, all the way up to my maximum tempo. The same is true for your "Alternate Picking Upstroke Focus" lesson. So for every new lick that I'm learning, I practice it three ways: 1) AP starting with a down-pick, 2) AP starting with up-pick, and 3) legato. I'm finding that this is helping me to play more smoothly and to handle varying situations.
