Tremolo exercise to break up the monotony

Learning classical guitar tremolo technique through Recuerdos
Here’s one that will throw you for a loop. I like to practice my p-a-m-i tremolo with the metronome sounding on every other stroke, and I do this on the first and second strings with the thumb moving from string to string from 1st string to 6th or from 2nd to 6th if I tremolo on the 2nd string. Using the metronome this way results in a regular beat on the thumb and middle finger. To mix it up, I chose to try a p-i-a-m-i tremolo with the metronome sounding every other stroke. The trick is that the beat switches fingers each time you cycle through piami. This will grab your attention fast and make you really concentrate. Try it the next time things get stale.
