Hi @1967kerbygmail-com and welcome to TAC! 😃 If I remember correctly the use of the 5, 3 and 1 count down is used to help build muscle memory on getting your hand and finger position ready to play. I think I am also remembering to do the 3 and 1 count you just don’t start moving your hand from the starting position until Tony hits that number. For example if you are practicing the 3 count: Tony will start at 5 however you let your hand rest until he gets to 3 and then start to position it. Hope makes some kind of sense and helps. 😎🎸🎶
