Please watch video above for in depth explanation:
With Alternate Picking it is essential to hear the rhythm so that your brain can process what you are about to play.
It is essential to still hear the “Ta Ka Di Mi” or “1 e and a” etc when there is silence or a rest. That way you will “Stay in the groove” with a tight smooth rhythmic attack to your playing.
