Ok so i no i only show up once and a blue moon and for that i do apologize, but on the note of downpicking im having a little trouble i cant seem to downpick without getting some kind of tension. Ive been practicing it for the last 2 weeks and every time i try my muscles in my shoulder, forearm, or bicep/tricep go stiff on my i guess would be a good word, i.e. i can feel something in one of those areas. Any tips on how to maybe keep more relax when doing this technique?
