The Spider
You can do the next exercise on any set of 2 adjacent strings. Since you are working your way up the neck of the guitar with this one, it actually gets easier. You could reverse the direction and come back down as well.

This is the same exercise only skipping one string in the middle. This is more of a stretch.

Here you are skipping 2 strings in the middle. The more strings you skip, the more the stretch.
