Mini lesson

How to play it

This original exercise teaches rhythm pushes in a arena rock setting. Start slowly, keep the picking hand relaxed, and listen for even timing before increasing speed. Use this as a free practice page, then connect it to the related premium course for backing tracks and deeper walkthroughs.

Practice plan

1. Clap or count the rhythm before playing.
2. Play the riff at a slow tempo for two clean loops.
3. Raise the metronome by 5 BPM only after it feels relaxed.
4. Record one take and listen for timing, muting and transitions.
5. Save the tab to a practice list if it needs another pass tomorrow.

Common mistakes

Rushing the first bar, squeezing too hard, letting unused strings ring, and increasing the tempo before the riff sounds clean.
