“I’m very excited to learn bass through the course. Are there any exercises you would recommend practicing during Modules, besides the workouts?”
Welcome! Find some easy songs to play and have fun.
Well, there are “literally” tons of other exercises. But… if you are just beginning and have no prior experience on the bass, I would exclusively focus on the modules and the exercises Josh has designed to teach you all the basics.
Then, once you have finished the course, you could start looking for more exercises. Josh’s YouTube channel has lots of other exercise videos, and he always also tells you where those fit in with the lessons of the course.
Don’t put too much on your plate all at once

This, 100%. But… if you absolutely need something else to work on, on the side I’d look at exercises that will help strengthen and get you using your pinky more. Thats an easy one that beginners tend to have a bit of a rough time getting used to.

Not exercises, but maybe try working on songs from the First 100 Songs pack after you’ve made some progress. Around the end of Module 6, Josh says you should be able to handle any of the easy level songs, and you could probably do some of them even earlier. Like the U2 - With or Without You chugging exercise in (IIRC) Module 4 is basically the entire bassline. If you can play that at full speed, you can play the whole song.
