Go to the main page of GuitarTricks ( http://new.guitartricks.com/index.php ) and click in the search box and type in "[chord/alternate picking/sweep/etc.] exercise". Guitar tricks members have put a lot of exercises on the page, and I'm sure you'll find something to help you. I found a lot of the exercises that I still use today with that little search tool.

Do be wary, though. You only can download a couple sound files per day; make your choices wisely. Only download the sound file if it looks like a cool tab. I just spent five seconds looking for some exercises, and I came up with these, that look like a good start.

I'm sure you can find some stuff other than that. That's an alternate picking exercise, and a mini-sweep exercise for 7th chords.
