Strum to a Click
Lock in with the metronome at 90 BPM.
Lesson
Lock in with the click
Set the metronome to 90 BPM. Strum a single chord (Em is fine) on every click — quarter notes only. Listen for the click and the strum to fuse into one sound.
Subdivide
Once that feels solid, halve your strum length — strum on every beat and on every "and." That's eighth notes. Same chord, twice as many strums. Stay relaxed.
The drag-and-rush check
Record yourself for 30 seconds with the click. Listen back. If your strums consistently arrive after the click, you're dragging. If they're consistently before, you're rushing. Most beginners rush. The fix: trust the click. Wait for it. Don't lead it.
