So hopefully as I explain this, it will make sense:

1. 5th Fret finger 1 6th fret finger 2 7th finger 3 and 8th fret finger 4. Play finger 1,2 1,3 1,4, 1, 4s (stretch pinky to fret 9). Then do reverse 4,3, 4,2 4,1 4, 1s (stretch 1st finger to 4th fret). do this on all 6 strings then move down 1 fret and start over working your way all the way down

2. This one is a pain in the A$$! Start at 10th fret 1st string finger 1. 11th fret 2nd string 2nd finger. 12th fret 3rd string 3rd finger, 13th fret 4th string 4th finger. Strum all 4. Now take 1st finger move down 2 frets (1st finger only!) play all 4 strings. Now move 2nd finger down 1 fret. Play all 4. next 3rd finger down 1 play all 4 and then 4th finger down 1 play all 4. Move 1st finger back up 1 play all 4. Repeat all the way down the fret board. As you get lower on the fret board, the frets get wider and it is a difficult stretch but it is possible and is one hell of a stretching exercise.

Hope these help
