I got my bass like a week ago and I’ve just been messing around, watching BassBuzz and trying to play some beginner stuff.

I’ve noticed a couple things tho

I’m REALLY slow. Like I can’t even keep up with beginner riffs even at 50% speed

When I’m fretting I keep lifting my fingers without meaning to

If I try to keep my fingers down, I end up muting the string by accident

Basically I can’t figure out how to keep my fingers on the fretboard without messing everything up

I know it’s probably normal since I just started but does anyone have exercises or tips for this?

Im playing on a lenovo laptop (i3-1005G1 CPU iGPU, 4 Gigs of ram)

I'll try just about anything i like action games, platformers, cozy etc just link ur favorites down below and ill check some of them out
