✅ Do this at EVERY tempo you practice to check if you’re ready to speed up from it:
1️⃣ Play your lick in quarter notes (1 note per click) at the tempo you are on.
As you do:
2️⃣ Focus on how relaxed you feel everywhere in your body.
Then...
3️⃣ Jump back to 16th notes (or triplets... or whatever the note values are)… and check if your playing feels just as easy as it felt in quarter notes.
If it does, great! Increase the tempo. 👍
If it doesn’t - DON’T increase the tempo. ❌
Stay at the speed you were at (or slow down) and making your 16th notes (or triplets) feel just as easy as quarter notes feel.
That ☝️ is how you’ll make your faster playing feel just as effortless as slow playing.
