Yeah that's what I do for most things I learn nowadays. But sometimes you can only move up so far. Depending on how complex it is what you're playing of course. I've been trying to increase this one lick, and I moved up like 30 bpm in the first couple weeks, but I've been trying to increase it the last 10 bpm for months now lol. But that's because it's faster than anything I've played before.
