... and I don't mean alternate picking.

I'm currently trying to build up speed and accuracy with alternate picking. Been practicing for a few days when I the other day suddenly stopped and started stroking the strings upswards only... Couldn't believe how slow I played that that. Tried the downstrokes aswell and it too was very slow.

Anyone actually exercising these? I mean.. improving upward strokes and downward strokes? It would be logical that one would improve speed but have anyone had any experience with this?
