Band: Trivium

These warm ups are from a Total Guitar magazine I found, I thought I'd tab
them out because they really helped me with triplets, picking and shredding
speed.

Also, I've tabbed out Matt Heafy's stretching warm ups that I found on
Youtube, they also helped me quite allot.

This may seem like a bit of a pointless tab but this will help if you have
problems with stretching, triplets, picking speed and accuracy.

Matt's warm up

all these notes are triplets
E||-------------------------------------------------------------5-6-8-5-6-8-|
B||-------------------------------------------------5-6-8-5-6-8-------------|
G||-------------------------------------5-6-8-5-6-8-------------------------|
D||-------------------------5-6-8-5-6-8-------------------------------------|
A||-------------5-6-8-5-6-8-------------------------------------------------|
E||-5-6-8-5-6-8-------------------------------------------------------------|

you can do this warm up backwards and
you can replace the 6 with a 7, this
helps train the little finger if you
have problems playing guitar with it

you can do this over and over again but
changing it by moving it either up or
down a fret.

also, I must warn that if you start to feel a sharp pain
in your wrist/hand or both then immediately stop playing,
this could stop you from playing for a while if you do any
damage, its really not nice

OK that's it hope you liked this tab please rate and enjoy
