A few months back,me and my guitarist started playing complicated,fast and fairly intricate metal for the first time (We're 18).
Anyway,because I'm stubborn as all hell,I decided I was only going to play with my fingers.The first few times we played the material I was getting serious cramps.I'm fine now but not quite as comfortable as I'd like to be.With this in mind,I was curious as to whether or not you suggest doing weights?
We have some free weights lying around the house and I want to know if doing them will both build up endurance for bass and help my playing in general?
Do either of you two do them?What do you think?
Thanks.
