Hey @Mimer
The exercises I was talking about are the Monday warm-ups. Tony has a whole library of them. The way to access them is to favorite them every week, and in about 7 months you’ll have all of them.
But he has others that you can find in the Acoustic Tuesday Show. And this whole week the daily lessons are literally exercises to build up pinky strength. Learning a lick is a type of exercise. Playing a song is a type of exercise. Anything that builds up the muscle memory and strength needed to play the guitar. So just playing will make you better over time regarding muscle memory and strength.
Playing scales is a great way to exercise, but make sure to play them melodically and use “phrasing”, that is, with some kind of rhythm.
Hope this helps. Please don’t hesitate to ask further questions.
