    Hey, recently i have been practicing lead and I have found vertain things that work in terms of holding the pick and wrist movement but as of yesterday all that has gone and it may be due to over thinking(I do it way to much) or something else but it is definitely a limiting factor in getting where I want to go in terms of my practice and playing. Does anyone have any advice on how to not overthink it all or how to practice muscle memory in the picking hand?
    Many thanks in advance, Dan

    @dan Just so that I understand what you’re saying, are you saying that you are adapting new practicing techniques for lead and you can do it pretty well for a while and then the next day it seems like you can’t really play at all? Like perhaps maybe you could be over practicing something too much? I’m not entirely sure I understand your question
