Start on the 1st fret index finger on the low E and work your way up to the high E, once you get to the high E index finger on the forth fret, start back to the low E. Then move up one fret and start again working your way all the way up the neck, then work you way back down the neck covering all the notes on all the frets. Be creative use alternate fingers, slide up or down a fret, mix it up. Even practice "palm muting", try them with a metronome or drum machine for timing.
