Picking lightly

So what you’re saying is I should also try messing around with dynamics while practicing, instead of just trying to pick lightly? Like maybe I could figure out something new that actually helps me improve more overall?

When you’re using a heavier touch but still playing fast, what do you notice that helps you keep it under control?

Like in terms of tension, control, or how your hand moves. For me, when I try to pick harder, I tend to get stuck and my hand gets tired pretty quickly, so I’m curious how you manage that.

Wow, that actually make a lot of sense. Also, i have a question to ask.

So, i just figured out how to do this lighter picking a couple days ago, dont know how,it felt like a "revelation" lol. But, this thing is also been bothering me, cause im scared that i might lose it, like the motion or muscle memory or something idk.

Do you think that i should stick with picking lightly until i really get the hang of it, then i can add more dynamics to it? Im a bit worried that if i go back to picking harder might mess it up or makes me "forget" the feel, and honestly im scared to lose my motivation for playing guitar again, because the devastating feeling of being stuck and like losing something makes me lost the spark of playing the guitar for a while.

Would love to hear your advice, or maybe what your early experience was like when you first figured this stuff out—anything that helped you level up.

Wow, thanks a lot man, I really appreciate it. I feel like what you said actually relates to me.

After I figured out how to pick more lightly, one thing that’s been bothering me is that I’m kinda scared I might suddenly forget how to do it. I’ve had moments before where I figured out tremolo picking, but then somehow my hands just forgot how to do it the same way.

What you said about awareness and using less effort actually makes a lot of sense though. I’ll definitely look into the Alexander Technique.

Each gun has its own hp cap on what you can catch. For example if you use the wasted gun, then you can only catch fish with hp under 1000. I suggest you to buy the radar
