    There is a player I have been following on YouTube lately (Hristo Vitchev) that has tons of amazing material on his channel and one of the exercises that helped me a lot was something he shows and explains in this video:


    It is fun and really works on coordination and strength.

    The best exercises are sometimes just playing what you play but with increasing intensity. Minimizing finger movement is more a classical discipline. If you look at great technicians like Pat Martino, his fingers are flying all over the place. On the other hand Frank Gambale's fingers hardly move at all, but a lot of his technique is in his right hand picking. Some jazzers hardly use their pinky, preferring to shift position. Hammering and pull-offs can be very expressive, so while it is a good discipline to be able to pick every note, it isn't necessary and doesn't detract from the sound.
