I've been playing for 10 years, and I've always had a problem with soreness/fatigue when I play a song with a lot of barre and power chords. The area between my thumb and index fingers, along with the "ball" of my thumb, gets fatigued very quickly, and it's starting to really frustrate me because I can't record a song of mine because about 30 secs into the song, it starts to hurt. Like I said, this is only an issue when I play a song that has a lot of barre and power chords, and it only gets worse on an acoustic guitar, probably because of having to press harder. I feel like this shouldn't an issue anymore after 10 years because it feels like it an endurance problem. Any advice you guys can offer is much appreciated.
