Thorough list of comping rhythms?

[Fractal]

A couple of days ago at a guitar lesson my teacher was just having my do a specific rhythm over a standard as an exercise. More specifically, it was just doing a 3 beat idea on the 1 and 1& then two beats rest and then on the 4 and 4& and then two beats rest and then the 3 and 3& of the next measure. Then repeat. Anyway, it seemed like a great exercise to go through all the voicings you could think of playing this idea to the tune. It made me wonder if anybody knows a could list of such rhythms. It seems like it would be a great exercise to get a thorough list of common comping rhythms just to practice individually. So, does anybody know of books or preferably free internet related things that might talk about that kind of stuff?

I find that I have to be really mechanical about my practice in order to learn new things.....

Berklee use to have Chord-lab workbook that broke rhythms down with variations and lots of examples. Reg

I have a couple of swing and Latin comping rhythm exercises on my site.

Look under the Comping section. In the examples, the X note head represents a muffled stroke.

And here's one exercise that I had my Berklee students do: Open Leavitt's Melodic Rhythms for Guitar book to somewhere near the middle. The book is organized by number of attacks per measure, so around the middle there are not too many attacks. Now strum the chords using the rhythm of the melody.
Of course, you can do this with any song, but having a bunch of songs with just a few attacks per measure is the best place to start.
