This progression encompasses almost every bass note in a key.  The point of this progression practice is to pay attention to your fingering and try to be smooth with your chord transitions.  If you try to use the same fingering for every chord, u will not do well with this practice.  Also, if you do this in every key, you will notice that some keys will start to feel the same because they are using chord progressions from a previous key.  Enjoy:

#1 / major 6 chord  (secondary dominant)
2 / 2 chord
3 / 1 chord
4 / 4 chord
#4 / major 2 chord  (secondary dominant)
5 / 5 chord
#5 / major 3 chord  (secondary dominant)
6 / 6 chord
7 / 5 chord
1 / 1 chord

Thanks, Teach. This now makes it easy to translate into every key.
