What exercises can I do to learn how to make transitions to new and more difficult chords more smoothly. For instance when playing a A7 on the 5th fret, I have to first bar and then lay my middle, index, and pinky fingers down slowly. I want to be able to instantly lay all my fingers simultaneously on the fretboard and form the chord. Any feedback is appreciated.
