When I first tried guitar hero, for some reason I thought I should strum using the side of my thumb. I'd have this swollen bump (there's a word for this but it escapes me) where I made contact and thought I just needed to get used to it to get past that. It made sense to me because I knew there was toughening of the fingers involved in playing a real guitar (never mind that it had nothing to do with strumming).
I was doing double strumming and practicing for expert level that way.
When I realized I could instead use my thumb pad to strum down and finger pad to strum up, it was game changer. You treat it like it's a pick. Duh.
