The speed developer exercises are designed to:
1. Develop strength
2. Accuracy
3. Confidence (which eventually turn into speed)
Memorize this exercise first, then practice it slowly and accurately. Learn to place your finger right up next to the fret without actually placing it on the fret. This is the most efficient position to get a good clean note. Keep your hand relaxed. If you feel an excess of tension you can stop and shake out your hand. Paying attention to the small details now will save you a lot of time and anguish later.
