Thanks everyone for participating! I’ve manually awarded badges to everyone who participated - if I missed you, let me know please.

To anyone reading in the future - you can still try this challenge for kicks, but the time for badges has passed. :slight_smile:

Thanks everyone for your feedback, it’s helpful for me to hear what worked AND what didn’t work about the exercises.

Consider yourselves lucky it wasn’t one of these exercises lol, young Josh was a sadist -

@Wes Thank you for your comment, I was watching this and thinking about how much work I have to do but now that I see her biceps doubled in size between clips I’m going to just lift some weights instead of practicing. :yum:

It took a couple views before it clicked. Guess that means it was well done, or I need to get more sleep :smile:

Not sure if he ever stopped being a sadist. Do you think it’s possible not to do this for the next 14 days now? :joy: :joy:

Thanks!

I’ve been keeping this video open on my PC and phone since September. Today I finally printed the PDF and added it to my song book (sorry I’m old school). I"m hoping to FINALLY add it to my daily practice TODAY!

@JoshFossgreen One thing that would be really helpful for the PDF would be to mention the step goals and the beginner intro tasks for each level.

So in my (grandpa era printed notes) songbook, next to each section I wrote things like “Flying Fingers one on/one off” for each step

Sorry if you intentionally left that off so that people would have to also use the video but for a standalone (PDF) tool it would be nice.

The other thing that would be nice maybe as an addendum to B2BA would be to break out each one of these steps into a short video explaining the step and doing a playthrough with tab for each one. Sort of like you do for the B2BA lessons. Maybe also use the beat ruler or talk about fingerings for each. Maybe this could be included with the course but just a separate link so I could do a lesson for the day and then spend 10 minutes practicing technique over there.

Hope these ideas help!
