After the Black Friday I decided to relax on practicing something intensive this week. So I just repeated 1234s, scales and strumming again with some progress with ear training.
1234 exercise
I finally get to the goal speed for this week. The exercises went well, so now I just need some practice to improve consistency.
3124 on the 5th fret
8th notes @ 150 bpm
3142 on the 5th fret
8th notes @ 150 bpm
3214 on the 5th fret
8th notes @ 150 bpm
Scales
Major scales
8th notes @ 150 bpm
Minor scales
8th notes @ 150 bpm
Strumming
Module 15 routine
120 bpm. Tried playing it on acoustic this time. Still can’t play substitutes for a long time, especially on the acoustic. My left thumb just starts to burn very intensely.
Ear training
I got to the level with 8 intervals today! The tritone is pretty easy to differ, it sounds really dissonant in comparison to other intervals. It’s really cool to see daily progress in this exercise.

Summary
Can’t wait to start chord construction module routines, but will do it next week. I lost quite a half of this one of Black Friday sale so will be able to invest much more time then.
