My problem with alternate picking is speed. For example, if you want to play a 3 notes per string run and you pick every note, you will have to alternate downstrokes/upstrokes with each first hit on the next string. It gets really hard to do as speed goes up.

Another problem is when you need to learn to combine alternate picking with pull offs/hammer ons/legato/sweep picking.

Any tips on that? :D
