→Inversion Bass/Strum
fig 5
C C/G C C/G G G/B G G/B C
Here the C Major chord alternates from root position to 2nd Inversion with its perfect fifth (G) in the bass. The G Major chord alternates between root position and 1st inversion with its major third (B) in the bass. Notice how this has much more of a sense of movement than the simple bass/strum example above. We stay on each chord for 2 measures instead of just one, but it doesn't feel boring.
