You've Been Building Speed
In The Wrong Order.
Five play-along exercises that train picking speed in the order it actually stacks: wrist control, single-string bursts, string crossing, full runs. Not just more reps at a faster metronome.

You're Not Stuck Because You're Lazy.
- Slow works. Speed exposes everything. The run feels clean at practice tempo, then falls apart the second you try to make it sound real.
- Your picking hand starts fighting you. The wrist locks, the grip tightens, and suddenly you're forcing every note instead of controlling it.
- The string change is where it breaks. One string feels manageable. Then you cross strings and the timing, accuracy, and noise all show up at once.
- Your hands can move fast separately. But when the fretting hand and picking hand have to lock together, the run starts slipping out of time.
- You've already tried “just practice it slower.” Metronomes, YouTube drills, more reps… and somehow the same speed ceiling is still there.
- Some days you think you found it. Then tomorrow, the exact same wall comes back like nothing changed.
That's the frustrating part.
You're putting in the work.
But you've been trying to build speed by chasing tempo, when clean speed comes from specific mechanics most players never isolate: wrist control, burst timing, string crossing accuracy, and multi-string fluency.
Until those mechanics are clean, pushing faster just makes the same mistakes louder.
Speed Breaks When The Mechanics Break.
Most players try to build speed by chasing a higher number on the metronome. They push the tempo, feel the hand tighten, back off, then try again tomorrow.
That is why the speed sometimes shows up for one pattern… then disappears the second the run changes, the string crossing moves, or the fretting hand has to keep up.
Clean speed is not one skill.
It is the result of smaller mechanics working together:
accurate string changes, clean synchronization,
and multi-string control.
If those mechanics are not trained in order, forcing speed just makes the same weak spots louder. But when each layer is built properly, speed stops feeling like a fight, because the movements underneath it can finally hold together.
Bernth Knows Why Speed Falls Apart.
Bernth is an Austrian guitarist, composer, and one of the most watched guitar educators in the world. He has helped thousands of players who practice hard, but still tighten up, lose timing, miss string changes, or hit the same speed ceiling for months.

After teaching so many guitarists, Bernth kept seeing the same pattern:
Players were not stuck because they lacked effort.
They were stuck because the mechanics underneath their speed were never trained in the right order.
So he built a system that trains them in the right order.

Everything You Need To Train Speed With A Plan.
No more piecing together random drills and hoping one finally works.
This gives you the videos, tabs, files, and tracks to train clean speed in the right order.
- The 5-Step Speed Exercise Package Full course access instantly, on any device, so you can start fixing the speed wall today.
- Exercise 1: Wrist Movement + Anti-Tension Control Slow + fast play-alongs to stop forcing speed from a locked-up hand.
- Exercise 2: Single String Speed Bursts Slow + fast play-alongs to make every fast note land clean before adding the string change.
- Exercise 3: Two String Speed Bursts Slow + fast play-alongs for the exact moment most runs fall apart: crossing to the next string.
- Exercise 4: Multi-String Ascending + Descending Bursts Slow + fast play-alongs to keep your timing and accuracy together across more of the neck.
- Exercise 5: Full Descending Runs Slow + fast play-alongs for the real test: all strings, no rushing, no blurring, no panic.
- Backing Tracks WITH Bernth's Guitar Hear where the notes should land instead of guessing if your timing is actually clean.
- Backing Tracks WITHOUT Bernth's Guitar Remove the guide and prove the speed is really under your control.
- PDF Tab Files For Every Exercise Put the exercise on your stand and stop wasting practice time scrolling around.
- Guitar Pro Files For Every Exercise Loop the weak spots, slow them down, and fix them before they become permanent habits.
- Zero-Fluff Format No intros. No talking. No wasted minutes. Press play and train.
This Is Not A Drill Menu.
The order is the system:
Fix the wrist.
Build single-string bursts.
Add the string crossing.
Expand across multiple strings.
Finish with full descending runs.
Every step fixes the mechanic the next step depends on.
The String Change Tells The Truth.
Single-string speed can hide sloppy mechanics.
The second you cross strings, your timing, tension, and hand sync get exposed.
This is Exercise 3: Two String Speed Bursts.
It trains the exact transition that makes fast runs rush, blur, or fall apart, before you try to execute it inside a full-speed drill.
Random Drills Don't Compound.
That is why you can practice one exercise for a week…
Feel a little progress…
Then lose it the second the pattern changes.
Most speed practice gives you pieces.
This gives you an order.
- 01 Step 1: Fix The Wrist First Because if your picking hand locks up, every faster tempo is built on tension.
- 02 Step 2: Build Single-String Bursts Because you need to hear every fast note land clean before string changes hide the problem.
- 03 Step 3: Add The String Crossing Because this is where most runs start rushing, blurring, or falling out of sync.
- 04 Step 4: Expand Across Multiple Strings Because real speed has to survive direction changes across more of the neck.
- 05 Step 5: Finish With Full Runs Because this is where timing, tracking, relaxation, and accuracy all have to work together at once.
This is not five exercises to sample.
It is the order your speed mechanics need to stack.
Players Are Breaking Past The Wall.
“As a self-taught guitarist, I can't thank Bernth enough. When practiced consistently, these exercises genuinely help you reach a new level.”
“I'd reached a point where I wasn't improving. These exercises helped me move beyond what I could figure out on my own.”
“His approach is genuinely useful at every level. My playing has improved day by day.”
“The first exercise immediately exposed weaknesses I'd ignored for years. It showed me exactly what was holding me back.”
“I've seen noticeable improvements just from consistently working through the drills.”
Stop Guessing Your Way Into The Same Wall.
You get everything needed to train speed with structure.
Slow videos to build control.
Fast videos to test it.
Tabs, files, and tracks so every practice session has a purpose.
And a sequence that makes every rep count.

Questions Before You Start
Is this for advanced players only?
No. Each exercise starts at a slower tempo so you can build control before adding speed. If you've been playing for a while and feel stuck at the same ceiling, this is built for exactly that point.
I've tried speed exercises before. Why is this different?
Most speed exercises give you another drill to repeat. This gives you a sequence where each exercise fixes the mechanic the next one depends on, so you're not just doing more reps — you're building speed in the right order.
I only have 20–30 minutes a day. Is that enough?
Yes. These exercises are short, focused, and built for consistent practice, not marathon sessions. Twenty minutes on the right sequence beats an hour of random speed drilling.
My hand tightens up every time I push tempo. Will this help?
That is exactly why Exercise 1 comes first. It trains wrist movement and anti-tension control so you stop trying to build speed from a locked-up picking hand.
What if string crossings are where I fall apart?
Exercises 3 and 4 are built specifically for that. You'll isolate the two-string crossing first, then expand across multiple strings so the transition stops being the moment the whole run breaks.
I've been stuck at the same speed for months. Is it too late?
No. Most speed plateaus are mechanical, not permanent. If you keep practicing the same movement that created the ceiling, the ceiling stays — this gives you a cleaner structure to rebuild from.
How is this different from free YouTube videos?
YouTube gives you isolated exercises with no clear order. This gives you five exercises sequenced deliberately, with slow and fast play-alongs, backing tracks, PDF tabs, and Guitar Pro files so you can stop searching and start training.
I've been playing for years but I'm still stuck at the same speed. Am I past the point where this can help?
No. Most long-term plateaus are mechanical, not physical. The ceiling exists because the same movement pattern keeps getting repeated at the same tempo. These five exercises target the specific mechanics underneath the plateau — and give you a structure to rebuild from in the right order.
Do I need Guitar Pro?
No. PDF tabs are included for every exercise. Guitar Pro files are just a bonus if you want to loop sections, slow them down, or customize your practice.
When do I get access?
Immediately. Once your purchase goes through, you can open the course on any device and start training today.
Same Drills. Same Wall.
Another Month Gone.
You can keep pushing tempo until your hand tightens, the notes blur, and the ceiling comes back. Or you can train the mechanics clean speed actually depends on, in the right order, starting today.
The mechanics don't fix themselves. The order matters. Start here.
