Practise Routine 3
I changed my routine today. To better measure my progress I’ve added a proficiency column. The range I use is from the easy end, quarter notes, one note per beat (D D D D), then to eight notes (Strum one or two) with two measures per chord, then eight notes with one measure per chord and then finally one hit per chord.
Once I reach one hit per chord, I consider this particular change mastered.
