# 308 - The Fastest Way To INSANE Guitar Speed (Practice THIS!)
🕑 Added 2024-01-19 15:30:01 +0000 UTCMy friends, I heard you want some hybrid picking workouts - so I made something very special for you :) This routine starts with 3 warm-up rounds and then goes into a killer practical etude, that will show you how cool and useful this underrated technique is.
Here are your practice files for this week (play-along videos, tabs, guitar pro files, backing tracks): https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1veiKWRDGJUwqePby-kofP0eIaMRRR9SJ?usp=sharing
This technique is all about combining regular picking with fingerpicking - so you will play downstrokes and activate your middle finger for the string-skipped notes. Since you don't have to skip between the strings with your pick, this will allow you to build massive speed easily!
As always, I also made a Dropbox folder for you in case Google Drive doesn't work: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/k9i6s5pdoq2wi7qhre9sd/h?rlkey=d57gzrt7cj2w09r0y8qgvazwr&dl=0

soo, what’s the key on getting faster on my playing? i know the answer is practicing the exercises, but is there any method like “practice at 50bpm ‘til you master it, then gradually increase speed to 55bpm ‘til you make it” and so on? Or do i have to practice at 120bpm even though i can’t play clear but doing it daily will make me play at that speed at some point? (and what happens with technique? ‘cause you obviously sacrifice it when it’s about a speed you don’t master) i always have this concern, hope someone could help me out :)
