I Did the "Spider Walk" for 30 Days (THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED!)

There are the basic, (1, 2, 3, 4), guitar fingering exercises that almost everyone's tried, and then there are more structured guitar exercises (hardly anyone does).
In this video, I show the unique "Spider Walk" guitar exercise and I talk about the value in doing it for even just 30 days. This exercise is best practiced in two ways.
The first is a "fixed finger" approach. The second approach involves designing a pattern to follow within a playing position of the neck. Then, modifying that pattern as you play within a two string region.

I did this 30 days. Guitar store wants to know if I will buy guitar.

I did this for 30 days and lost 17 pounds!

I did this 30 days. The spiders have accepted me as one of their own.

Beginner guitarist here. Just did this for 20 minutes, took a break, did another 20, break, 20 and now I’m done. I can now do it at 80 BPM comfortable and 100 BPM if I focus more. The challenge is kind of addicting.
-
I tried this for 3 days and have come to the conclusion my guitar is arachnophobic.

It's kinda funny how the spider walk is taught by Dr Octavius..
-
Thank you so much! As a 41 year old striving towards my life long dream of being a musician, I will always remember this lesson. And I will share any chance I get. Well done sir.

I am a self-taught guitarist who has been playing for 15+years, I have always struggled with technique I just freestyle mostly but this is the most well-described beginner method I have ever heard. This will help me improve my technique, thank you 🙏

Been practicing this technique for a week. Now I can walk with my fingers.

i tried this for 10 seconds and went back to learning van halen riffs.

As a 76 Year Old I have hardly touched my Guitar in more than 16 or so Years. This was due to being Forced into Retirement and Life interfering. Now I've decided to start playing again as I Know that it will be good for my Old Head as well. This Lesson is very inspiring and being clear, concise, fully explanatory, I believe it is the best way to get back on track again. Thank you for this, you are very kind and it is much appreciated. Greetings from South Africa. 🇿🇦

OMG! I have been playing for over 35 years and I can shred my butt off but I struggle with learning certain songs and timing. I just tried to do this spider technique. I SUCK AT IT! My "stationary" fingers are flying all over the place heedless of my desire for control. Going to practice this on the regular.
-
I did this the spider walk exercise for 30 days and I became an incredible spider walk exercise player.
-
I did this exercise for 30 days... girlfriend is having a blast.
-
It's very clear to me that this is an essential exercise if you want to play lead. I'm gonna work really hard on not putting the cart before the horse, and take my time.
-
I've been playing for years, and thank you very much for reminding me that basic technique cannot be overlooked. Will practice as much as I can. I'm sure it will help tremendously.
-
I'm the serious comment y'all looking for that actually does this. I'm in ABRSM classical guitar grade 7 and I can say this exercise is very effective for making your playing cleaner and more legato(reducing gaps between notes). It also provides greater control over each individual finger without affecting surrounding fingers.

Me: index finger, go! Index finger: sir, yes, sir! Me: middle finger, go! Middle finger: sir, yes, sir! Me: ring finger, go! Ring finger: ... sir? Me: GO! RIng finger: unable to comply, sir! Me: ... Me: pinky finger, go! Pinky finger: sir, yes, sir!

Congratulations. You are the first electric guitar teacher I've seen on Youtube to use a strap when sitting down. Therefore you are the only electric electric guitar teacher on youtube who has an efficient position for holding the guitar.
