The fingers have considerable strength and endurance, which is the fundamental basis for playing the pipa ring finger well. Since our hands belong to the peripheral nerve parts in the human body structure, they are in a state of micro-force. In addition, the Pipa Wheel Finger requires four fingers to pop out and move with small joints, which increases the difficulty of the Wheel Finger. So how to solve the problem of weak fingers?

How to Improve the Strength of Pipa Wheel Fingers

One is to fix the standard wheel finger type. The hand shape of the wheel finger is the same as that of the bouncing hand. It should form a half-clawed fist. The small joints of the fingers should be bent and isolated. The fingertips of the big finger and the index finger should be pinched together. The tiger's mouth is circular, and the right upper arm is natural. Sagging, the angle of the right forearm and the back of the hand forms a plane with the lute panel, maintaining the natural readiness of the round fingers as a whole.

The second is to slow down the speed of the open string wheel finger practice. Because only slowing down and practicing chakra is the scientific way to solve the fundamental problem. We can start from the index finger, and then the middle finger, ring finger, and little finger pop out in turn; we can also start the plate from the big finger, and then pop out from the index finger, middle finger, ring finger, and little finger in turn. The time between fingers and fingers should be as fast as the sound of the second hand of the clock moving. The correct method requires to hold the fingers halfway, and then rely on the strength of each finger joint to pop out one finger and one finger, that is, jump out one by one. , Do not swipe across the string with four fingers at the same time. In order to control the speed and exercise the intrinsic potential of the fingers, you can use the method of silently reciting numbers to control the time of the fingers, such as: one (big finger) two (index finger) three (middle finger) four (ring finger) five (little finger), five (index finger) four ( Middle finger) Three (name finger), two (little finger) and one (big finger) circular finger practice. The first step forward is to lift the board with the big finger, and the return is to lift the board with the index finger. After each finger has finished playing the string, you should quickly relax and return to the ready state of half fisting from the straighter finger shape.

The third is to create conditions to simulate wheel finger practice. That is to leave the pipa to practice the ring finger, because only on the pipa to practice the ring finger, the time is short and the limitation is large. Therefore, if you want to expand your practice time, you can practice your ring fingers anytime, anywhere. If you are walking, you can use the left edge of the front of the jacket to make the strings, pinch the lower end of the front with your left hand to tighten the front of the shirt, and practice your fingers on the top of the front with your right hand. As a string, practice the right wheel finger without affecting study and dining; then you can use the corner as a string, as long as you pass by the corner, your right hand must practice several times on the corner line without losing the opportunity. Persistently in this way, it will reach the level of going crazy. If you don't practice the wheel finger, your fingers will be itchy. Over time, the inner strength of the five fingers of the right hand and the wheel finger technique will gradually strengthen unconsciously.
