The hardest part of practicing is starting. I made something for that.

So I just hit 27 exercises in The Practice Lab and I wanted to share it with you all because honestly it's gotten to a point where I'm pretty proud of it.

For those who haven't seen it yet, it's basically a collection of focused technique exercises built around the same stuff I talk about all the time. Alternate picking, legato, string skipping, that kind of thing. Each one is designed to actually be practiced properly, not just noodled through.

Right now it's completely free to access at practice-lab.jonbjorkmusic.com

A couple of things before you dive in:

Start by reading the "Read Me" in the top right corner of the starting page. It'll make everything make a lot more sense.

If you're on mobile, turn your phone sideways. You'll get a better view with more info showing during each exercise.

Worth mentioning before you go check it out. In the next few weeks it's going to move behind a paywall. It'll be available as a standalone purchase or as part of Pro, which if you're already a Pro member means you already have it covered.

So if you want to check it out for free, now's the time. And if you find something useful in there I'd genuinely love to hear what you think. It's still in beta mode and feedback from you guys is actually

useful to me at this stage.

Anyway. Go have a look if you're curious. 🎸
