Hi Adam
 I must be honest with you,I never had any practicing routine, I was just drawing a goal and running for it. Tho I probably made million mistakes going that way  So I would switching through shapes,do not lock yourself to just one,my opinion. And do NOT look at the watch,just practice and have fun while doing that!! Practicing has to be fun,otherwise you're doing it against your will which isn't greatest thing tho. About timing,do not look that much on tempo and speed but on articulation and clean playing. Sweeping is tricky technique I must admit, when you're playing alternate you're able to feel every note, obviously cause you're picking the same number of notes as you're playing. But in sweeping you can get lost,articulation wise. So try to hear every note you're playing and try to feel when you're hitting string/note,that is most important, otherwise you'll just sweep around with lot of noise etc. Hope I helped a bit,let me know if you need anything else.

As far as I can see you're doing it just right Adam,
picking hand is moving without effort,timing is good as well. Now simply upgrade your speed step by step but keep it clean as possible,just like in this video,well done.

Well I could try with audio as well
but I can't tell why something is wrong, all I can say is what is wrong, which won't be of great help I guess.

Sure,looking forward to it!
And do not worry about speed atm, just watch Adam's take and you'll see that timing,accuracy and clean playing is the most important here, speed will come naturally,trust me.
