You have probably seen finger strengthening exercises for guitarists in some of the free courses on the web.
There are lots of exercises that you can do, without your guitar in your hands, that will build up strength in your fingers. Many classical musicians shake their hands energetically just before they start to play. This gets rid of the tension in your hands that accumulates during a day at the office.
There’s a finger strength gadget called the Gripmaster that builds strength and coordination that the hands need for activities like guitar playing. The Gripmaster isolates and strengthens each finger individually for greater hand, wrist and forearm control.
Another finger strengthening exercise is to tap each finger of your left hand on a table. Start with your finger tips resting on the table so your hand looks like a spider. At first the fingers will sound on the table at different volume levels. Tap each finger, varying the order, with the aim of getting equal volume from each finger.
There are also exercises for strengthening fingers that you can do while playing the guitar. Here are some Finger Strengthening Guitar Exercises from Axel’s Blog.
Today’s video shows a very basic finger exercise that you will probably use every day for the rest of your life:
