    Not just you. I still count this one out loud and I've been at it four years.

    Metronome at 60 and no faster until it's clean twice through. Boring but it works.

    There's a slower track in the resources for this one. If you want it slower still, let me know and I'll cut one.

    There's a slower jam track under the resources tab on this lesson, worth grabbing.

    Count it out loud. Everyone says it and everyone's right.
