Troy Nelson Guitar Aerobics (Book & Online Audio) (Book) : Troy Nelson: desertcart.co.uk: Books

Review: Worth the Money. It is good, portable and does not rely on an internet connection to use. - I returned to the guitar 7 years ago after a 30year lag. As a beginner, the book was for me too much at once and after several attempts to make it routine I put it on the book case with the intent to return to it "at some point". Recently I have and I was right to keep it as opposed to relegate to a charity shop. My thoughts for what they are worth... If you are truly just beginning, then hold fire for 6 months or more. Get your hands and fingers toughened up , with an element of independence and basic rhythm. It does favour an electric guitar but don't be put off. You can work through this book with an acoustic (I swap between) and get the benefit. Set aside 5-10minutes only for the exercise. Concentrate on understanding the pattern very slowly and concentrate on getting it to the beat. The goal, get that bit right. It will seem dull and lack musical interest but this is more about skill than wowing the crowd with speed. Set timer and stop. To cement the skill, find a favourite lick that uses the concept of the exercise (I sought out a few bars from Pink Floyd). You don't have to but I found it more interesting to then spend 10 minutes putting the skill into a context of something I knew and therefore more likely to play it when just noodling around. If you try to get perfection at high bpm, you will stay there for a while or get frustrated. Move on and don't dwell; the exercises increase in complexity therefore tackling something harder each week is the progress you need. I was tempted to go back a few weeks and see if I was faster. I wasn't but was able to pick up the tempo by about 30% within 10minutes. I decided that was interesting but then just proves I am progressing in ability by following the program. As mentioned I returned to this recently so have been playing for many years. I started at the beginning but did two exercises a day as some I could master quickly. I did struggle on some (stuff I had avoided in the past). If you are an intermediate then the choice is yours. The author suggests entry points and I was tempted but decided that accelerating through the stuff I could do was better that ignoring it as I did have to work out some bad habits. My conclusion, this is a good structured routine that is varied, relevant to pretty much anything you may want to play, will give you a great sense of rhythm / technique and does not need you to spend hours a day. I give 5 stars only but I don't think it is truly for a start out beginner. As with an aerobics class (I have done one or two), you need to get the steps right in your mind apply to the rhythm before you can go crazy.
Review: Neatly organised bite sized exercises - A specific technique for each day of the week gradually differing exercise over 52 weeks. However you go at your own pace. All exercises are written in tablature with a very brief explanation. Comes with backing tracks to help keep tempo Would recommend to people who've got to grips with the basics of guitar teachings.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very, very nice!
*by M***N on 31 October 2025*

I have just completed this 'course' and yes I stuck to the 52 weeks part, it took me the full 1 year of 52 weeks of practice but I digressed from the 1 exercise a day bit! Why? Well, early on I found out that however much practice you do on a given day it is in the repetitive nature of things that you really make noticeable progress (well, in my case that is how things tend to pan out). So what I did was practice all 7 exercises per day - depending on the complexity of the exercise that would be anything from a few minutes to several minutes of practice per exercise and roughly 30-60 minutes a day. What I found was that by practicing a given exercise for 7 days I got better at it than just spending 10 or 15 minutes on it and moving onto the next exercise the following day. In all fairness to the recommended routine, I just don't see how you gain anything much in the long term by spending one session on something, however easy it is. Right now I a have returned to the book after completing it and am going through it again - on the whole I am able to pretty much 'hit' every exercise at full tempo to a 'decent' standard and complete a weeks worth of exercises in 20 minutes or so - I do this to not only inform myself of how my playing has improved but also to fine tune certain skills that I am still developing. As far as the book is concerned, yes, it can be somewhat challenging and I think you might be better off with a year of guitar playing (or so) under your belt first, if only to lessen the frustration will will inevitably have when you come across some of the slightly more challenging exercises - and they will 'hit' you early on. If your a complete beginner do yourself a favour and get some practice in first, by all means buy it and see for yourself, try a few exercises and you will probably agree that it is something for the not too distant future. The exercises are pretty varied covering arpeggios, chord progressions, scales, riffs to name a few - they are all relatively short being mostly 4 bars. If I had any complaints it would be that 1) I wish chord charts were shown above the tab's and 2) A little more explanation of what is going on would have been helpful - the 'format' of 2 pages of tabs per week obviously restricted space, so it is what it is! If you are enjoying this book and want more I also recommend 2 other books from Troy Nelson which are also presented via a 52 week practice schedule: Fretboard Freedom: A 52-Week, One-Lick-Per-Day Method & Rhythm Guitar 365 Daily Exercises Developing Improving Gtr: Daily Exercises for Developing, Improving and Maintaining Rhythm - both books touch on similar ground to 'Aerobics' with the first being a somewhat 'easier' step into short riffs and scales and the latter concentrating more on chord and rhythm work and being somewhat more challenging, without a doubt this latter title is definitely not going to be 'fun' for anyone who has not got some solid foundational practice in place.
