TAC Family Forums

Hi @DGri

Many people have this same issue, and besides doing stretching and practicing, I have one more tip: Use your Capo.

Put your capo on the 3rd, 4th or 5th fret and give it another try. The frets aren’t as far apart up there and it will give you a chance to conquer the exercise/song even if it’s in a different key. As you master the fretting, you can gradually move your capo back down, one fret at a time.

And, as others have already said… don’t over do things. It’s way too easy to get tendonitis from pushing it too fast. And it takes 4-6 months to recover from tendonitis. It’s alot of time to spend studying theory, hehe.
