For the p stroke, like Ricardo says, default to apoyando;
OK guys I was practising my arpeggio with thumb rested at 10:30pm and started again this morning at 6am [X(]
I'll see if I can drill it in.
The setting the fingers ima in advance was something I saw a guy do and he claimed it helped him get more speed. Obviously, from comments here, something that works for him and not generally accepted. I'll skip that [:)]

Another argument that I find interesting is that there is little use in practising abstract skills and expecting them to suffice at the coalface. For example straight scales, up and down.
El burdo I learnt a few scales and use them to improvise. It was part of an online lesson where you randomly (perhaps not the word but you know what I mean I hope) used sections of scales terminating in chords (played in various ways). It was the first time I felt creative, but then I'm not naturally musical. Of course it didn't suggest you played them like an express train from one end to the other [:)].
On using actual pieces of music I agree although some course/lesson developers realise you need to make basic exercises interesting and musical, and do so. For sure if an exercise is boring I throw it out. It is not although we are short of materials.
Anyway thanks again everyone. You've left me again with a lot of work to do. Day 102 already underway [:D]
