In this lesson we'll complete the strumming pattern by adding an upstroke for variation at the end of the bar.

Now let's practice this with the metronome. Remember to stay with the click, add the accents and now the extra upstroke at the end of the bar. Also notice how your shoulder, arm and wrist feel as you do this. The goal is to be relaxed and fluid in the motions.
