Fingerstyle Fitness by Doug Boduch is a guitar technique book for fingerstyle guitarists who want a more structured, musical approach to practice. Drawing on styles associated with players like Merle Travis, Chet Atkins, Leo Kottke, and Tommy Emmanuel, it helps players build stronger fingerpicking control, coordination, and confidence through focused daily workouts, while reinforcing reliable practice habits.
This book covers essential fingerstyle topics including right-hand dexterity and speed, useful pima patterns, left-hand stretches, finger independence, legato techniques, barre techniques, Travis picking, arpeggios and scales, and building fingerstyle arrangements. TAB and access to 80 online demonstration videos are included, and many of the videos feature both slow and full-speed versions so players can clearly follow each exercise and refine their execution.
Rather than isolated drills, the material is designed to connect technique with real musical application. Players are guided through the process of building their own fingerstyle arrangements, improving coordination between hands, and developing consistency in tone and timing. This makes it especially useful for those looking to move beyond basic patterns into more expressive and polished playing.
Whether used as part of a daily practice routine or as a structured skill-building resource, this book supports steady, measurable progress. It is well suited for self-learners, students, and guitarists returning to focused study, and also makes a thoughtful gift for anyone interested in fingerstyle guitar. With its combination of written guidance and video support, it offers a clear path toward more confident and musical playing.
