Chromatic Guitar Exercises AKA "The Spider!"

Often I compare playing a song on the guitar like playing a game in sports. To play a sport, one must perform cross training exercise to stay in optimal shape for the game. This is the same for playing guitar. Basic chromatic exercises are a great way for beginners to build stretch and for more experienced players to warm up.

The diagram below features 24 different patterns that can be performed. Remember keep your fingers close and pretend your hand is like a spider crawling up and down the fretboard. I recommend printing out a copy of the diagram and keeping it your guitar case. For the more modern players download to your smart phone or tablet PC. Honestly, I do all three. Here is a link to the video.

Have fun,
