So before you read this, 1) I did search and didn't really find anything I didn't already know, and 2) I know that strength in the plucking hand isn't what most players require; it's a lighter touch that gets them where they want to go.
My situation is a bit different.
MS is causing my right hand to curl up like a dead bug when I get too hot or overexert myself (which, to be honest, doesn't take much). So I'm trying to come up with exercises that allow me to strengthen the fingers on my plucking hand, to be able to push through the fatigue when it rears its ugly head.
My doctors are no help at all. So I'm asking TB.
If you have any good exercises that allow you to add strength to your plucking hand that involve playing my bass (meaning other than putting rubber bands on my fingers and such), I'd be much obliged if you'd post them here. Many thanks in advance.
PS: I wonder if I'm the only TBer with MS....? Drop me a line if you're of a like mind and such.
