In the Drum Lessons forum, there's a thread where Gunman posted a video with some little finger exercises, on a search for finger technique.

Well, Finger technique works wonders on the hand, both in relaxing the hand muscles and strengthening the hand. I used to do a lot of these when I did magic, but got out of magic, and then got out of the exercises. These videos are from Greg Irwin, the last word in finger fitness.

I found these after looking at the thread in Drum Lessons. These are great for all sorts of things. Guitarist, drummers, magicians, jugglers... the list could go on and on!

I do some stretching of the hands and fingers before I play, but this will help take things to the next level.

Thanks for bringing them all together, Homki890!

You should make this sticky in the lessons section

That's awesome, I can't do ANY of the fast ones yet. I had to send it to a non drumming mate who does magic as I now he'll love them!

Nice one Homki!

Yeah, he's very well known in Magic circles. He works closely with a man named De'vo von Shattenreich. De'vo is a underground legend at XCM, or Xtreme Card Manipulation. Google him, you'll find a lot and also very little about him. He;s immensely popular, but because he's an underground person, there is not a single picture of his face anywhere.

But yeah, these things are great. Could someone sticky this somewhere?

Yeah, I can imagine this'll help with my finger speed on guitar. I'm pretty damn fast, but these exercises look like they'd help with coordination and finger independence.

Great find!
