Oi! Ken
It's something I've been thinking about but too lazy to do anything about. I keep meaning to sit down with my Andy Timmons Resolution transcription book and my Eric Johnson book and find some nice fast runs to use as exercises rather than just doing scales. It's what I like about the GMC lessons is that they are musical ideas that focus on certain things -------------------- My SoundCloud

QUOTE (KenA @ Oct 29 2013, 05:30 PM)  Hi guys. For a Workout Routine ( the gym part ), do you think it's better to extract the exercises from actual songs so I have a more musical sounding exercise or it's better to go neutral and find/build exercises with the specific goal of making your muscles to workout? I'm sure the more advanced players have at least once thought about this dilemma and I would appreciate knowing what you guys think about this. Thanks in advance, Ken Hi Ken! I think that both things are important and effective to become better at technique. Learning songs and practising musical licks and ideas will give you real vocabulary, it's like learning phrases in a language. Practising exercises will help you to play those phrases with more precision and without limits. They prepare you to every type of situation. I like to compare it with football players. Running, gym and doing exercises are very important for them to be on shape, but real playing & experience is as important to become a better footballer. So in our case would be: Exercises: getting in shape, Real Music Playing: Become a better guitarist / musician. Let me know if you are interested in my help to design your weekly routines!

Hi mate, nice post! I think that you are on the right path with all those concepts. I like the fact that you give a big importance to understand the fretboard and do an effective use of scales and modes. And also to work on this in parallel with technique concepts.
Regarding Gab's Army Routines, there is not an specific level that you need to have, we design them together with the students so once you feel ready we can start working on it. By the way, feel free to contact me every time you need some help or feedback! -------------------- My lessons

Great video and the way Satriani thinks is very similar to the way Farred Haque thinks. Check this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qg19XiAnAD8 - at around 41:05min Joe explains that he extracts interesting found exercises from actual songs ... anyways, thanks for sharing this one!
