"These are the bass guitar lessons I wish I had when I was coming up. I've distilled the curriculum in Fretboard Fitness to the essential nuts and bolts of playing bass guitar; navigating the fretboard, building hand strength, and understanding the essential principles of music theory and harmony. All of the video bass guitar lessons, exercises and workouts that I've included in Fretboard Fitness are designed to form a strong bond between your hands, ears and mind."

The best quality of this course is how you work with it; you'll play your way through Fretboard Fitness. No tedious, boring routines or theoretical math here. Stu designed each workout to provide equal measures of applied theory, fretboard navigation and hand strength. This 3-in-1 approach gives you more of a musical perspective and makes working out more fun.

this sounds so sick. i cant wait to get a bass

[818KLOWNER]

This exercise is really working out the stretching on my fingers! Although I do need to work on keeping my fingers as close to fret as I can, I have a problem with a pinky. I kind of broke it long time ago and sometimes when i fret a note with my pinky, my bone cracks a bit. Should I go see a doctor about this before I get into the bass more seriously?

[RTaz535]

[ratone5muerto5]

[2MrTwoCents2]

@umbrellaboots Fingers yes, idk about the wrist. Mine never hurt when I started to play. Check where your hands are placed and stretch a bit before and after you play, or just whenever. You'll play faster and everything,
