That's a great one. Another one I've tried using is that early riff from Master of Puppets, whatever it's called (pre-verse?). Anyway, I try to play that lick up and down the neck and on higher strings. Feels kind of awkward but it does help loosen up the fingers.

Crazy Train is an excellent warmup. It was my first introduction to Inversions, back when nobody even knew what an Inversion was. It uses all three 2nd through 4th string Inversions, with a freakin' bass pedal note to top it off. That alone is a good warmup. And then the pulloff sequence by itself is a good warmup. But the speed and precision that you have to have to play it right really brings the warmup all together. The opening Riff is a warmup. The descending Inversions (with the pedal bass note) is a warmup. And the 3 string pulloff sequence is a warmup. Plus, it's catchy as hell. It's a great song. So it's hard to ask for a better exercise.

Here's a great trick for locking in your internal tempo: Set the metronome to half the speed you want to play, and let it be "2 and 4." You have to find 1 and 3 on your own. This forces you to groove; you basically make the metronome's pulse into the backbeat snare drum. Start by playing scales to it, and then try some rhythm lines. And don't forget your triplets and shuffle/swing grooves. (You can, of course, program a drum machine with just a snare hit on 2 and 4, also.) Have fun!

They have some good riffs that make for some great exercises.
