#doublebassdrumming #doublebassdrum #doublepedal
As a drum teacher for 15 years i have to say that this video is very helpfull to all my students. Simple, direct to the point and efective. congrats!!
Wow it's a big honour for another teacher to use my stuff. Thank you so much, I really appreciate this. You have the best week!
Now you need to go from 220 to 410!!!!! Honestly, great video
@@vincentkingsdale8334 No! 420!! 😅
as a teacher 20 years this is bullshit。
Swag 👌🏻
I recommend doing this routine 3x at least, 5x at most a week and resting for 2 days at least. Also take into account all the other activities that you are doing weekly like other kinds of drumming practice, work, exercise, everything adds up. Hence the intensity and consistency looks different for everyone. Some need to practice more, some need to pace themselves.
You might have to stop other kinds of intense activities that work your legs and feet and devote more into double bass training to ensure that you have enough consistency yet don't over fatigue them. Making double bass a priority is essential for speed and control. It is one of the hardest things around to be good at.
Adjust the entire routine's speed to fit your current thresholds. Stick to 1 tempo for an entire week or 3 practice sessions at least. Then go to the next and do that tempo for 3 sessions or for that whole week. If you increase by 1bpm or 1% you will increase your bpm by 48 in a year and that is A LOT.
If you're not interested in building fill vocabulary, then you can skip exercises 8 and 9. But they will help you build a better overall facility of using double bass if you do them. Just that the pattern work can be more challenging to some than the other exercises so you have to slow them down a lot more at first.
The more you train, the more your muscles and nervous system levels up, the more you can train to go even faster. So crank it up to 4-5x a week, or double the tempo or volume in a single session. You want to be challenging your body as it moves forward. But again factor in recovery periods.
Recovery periods : These are days where your muscles get an opportunity to repair and grow. If you keep training with the same intensity every day, your muscles will not be able to grow. So have days where you either don't do any double bass drumming at all, or lessen the tempos by 20-30bpm. Or work on other stuff that will force you to slow down (new fill or coordination ideas) or even just practice more hand intensive stuff.
I like to take 2 days off a week(this is when I work on youtube videos/social media/answer community questions), and train hard the other 5 days.

Thank you i will be adding this on my daily routine!!
@@parsanchhetri8123 Hope it helps!
I think that, when it comes to the doublefoot technique, each drummer as a separate individual can achieve improvement only through an individual approach. Ok, of course there are some general rules, such as sitting position, correct posture, properly adjusted bass pedals, chair, sitting height, angle at which the legs are in relation to the static part of the body, balance, etc. But in order to really develop a technique that will allow you to play demanding patterns at different BPMs as well as complex rhythms, fast doublefoot sections, speed changes, adaptation and more, you must keep one thing in mind: and that is PRACTICE!!! In the end, it all boils down to hours and hours of boring exercises and huge amounts of dedication, patience, and love. Over time, that wonderful peripheral nervous system of ours seems to develop its own autonomy and your extremities start to "do the job" without you struggling and fighting with yourself. And why do I say that an individual approach is the only logical choice? Well, simply for the reason that we are all different in terms of personal characteristics, physical structure and certain innate qualities that allow us to do something that is unimaginable to others with ease, or that even with the greatest efforts we cannot do something that is a piece of cake for others. When you find yourself facing a wall (and we all do sooner or later) then don't try to knock it down, or jump over it. No! Simply bypass it or turn in a completely different direction that may take you a longer way but you will eventually reach your destination. Work hard on yourself and believe in yourself and trust your inner voice sometimes. And let's not forget that there are some really great drummers with completely different, unorthodox or even "wrong" style ,but they are playing the drums like hell. Look for example Dave Lombardo and his style ,sitting position and pretty much everything about him is different but he is killing it. Or a complete opposite Mike Portnoy which sitting position is extremely high ,it seems like he is almost standing. Or Gene Hoglan,oh gosh he has a unique style ,even his shoes are different. There are many great drummers with great doublefoot technique but theirs style and drum setup in general is totally unique.
Totally agree with you, each individual is unique and different. Good thoughts dude.
Yes it's great to pay attention to one's uniqueness. And also to be objective as to how those drummers you mention are achieving what they wanna do as well as what are their limitations. For example Portnoy and Lombardo do not play as fast as the speed metal guys. So I reference more of those other guys as my pool of study. And then there start to be more similarities between setup and muscle use 😉
I’m going to incorporate this warmup into my daily routine. I love that you look at not only drumming, but the functions that drumming requires of our bodies. And how we have to take the time to care for our bodies to continue doing what we love. Playing the drums. Really appreciate your effort in making these videos. Thank you
Really appreciate your wonderful comment, hope this helps! Just be careful not to overdo it because you're adding this onto your existing daily routine. It could add too much fatigue to your muscles, but try it out and see how it feels after 2 weeks :D
Same
Someone should also show drummers lower back exercises. So many old school drummers have back problems from sitting with bad posture
That's true. I had neck and shoulder problems from a hunched neck. Currently fixing it for the past 2 months.
Bro I've been following you since you had like 5k subscribers. Your channel is a blessing to the drum community. God bless you ❤
Woah man it's been 7 years ever since. Thanks for sticking around!!! Hope I've helped you with all those videos.
Excellent lesson! You are one of the few players and teachers who emphasizes breathing. Breathing is so incredibly important in drumming that I'm surprised most do not give it much thought.
Oh I learnt this from the legend Benny Greb. You're right though, being able to breathe just shows how in control you are of what you're doing.
Great! Saw Benny in a clinic many years ago. Learned a few tips and tricks which I still use to this day!
I finally reached 190 bpm consistant. Thanks a lot 🤘🤘🤘🙌🙌🙌
YES!!!! You put in some fantastic work 🔥💯
That's all good man. But HOW to play above 140 is the problem. How to place the foot, position, basic movement...that allows you to start to play
That will make for a great video. I'll give it a lot of thought and probably make one.
Simple and to the point. Simple exercises are the most practical.
Do check out my list of double bass lessons in my playlist, there are a lot of lessons there about technique, settings etc th-cam.com/play/PLqB3qW_j0ovLE10n8cmj5yPpGYjcyuoq4.html
@@ArtOfDrummingHQ i already have, it is very helpful, thanks. Part of the problem is i have cheap pedals. I plan to upgrade to some speed cobras soon so i expect progress
@Milomir Simonovic getting quality pedals are a game changer! If you get good on cheap pedals, a well-configured Iron Cobra or DW9000 will be magical haha
This video is so good. I love that you even added a stretching section to this routine, very underrated element and very important aswell as overlooked by most
Cheers, thank you and I hope you benefit from this video!
Woah! You just helped this jazz trained drummer with a right leg condition to finally take on double-pedal. My friend gave me one of his double pedal saying I was so eager to try it but I never really had the nerve to set it up to practice seriously until now. I just followed all the routine with just my feet on the floor up until the fill-in patterns, and I could actually do it! Sure, it was far from perfect - and far from a perfect way of practicing - but if I can do it, anyone can. I've been playing for nearly 20 years and haven't found anything motivating me to seriously practice again between rehearsals and shows. Something in the flow of this routine really works, and my leg feel better than before after the stretches! Thank you so much!!!
Nice, I wasn't sure if people would actually do the stretches or skip it. But your 20 years of experience can tell you things most people don't know :D I'm glad this was motivating for you. And I've also been drumming for 20 years so HIGH FIVE!!!
Your material is gold, it shows that you do it with love and dedication
Thank you so much, appreciate your kind appreciation :D
As someone who's been trying to get better foot control consistently for double kick, this is invaluable, i will try this today.
let me know how it goes, it will also serve to help everyone else trying this for the first time!
love the soundtrack change for the stretching segment lol. this video rocks.
You rock man 😎💯
i just got my first double pedal a few days ago, i have been playing on a single pedal for 7 years now. this video is literally making my shins and calves die yet say thank you. Really taking your videos and other tips to not overdo practice but this scratches that itch in my brain. I shall control myself. Thanks for the knowledge man!!
Welcome to the double kick universe! Well if you wanna practice go ahead!!! Just take a rest when it starts to feel too sore and you don't recover within 24hrs, otherwise no harm really. All our bodies are diff. Have the most fun anyway!!
Congrats on the new double pedal!! What kind did you get?
This is great, not only does it improve speed but also control/independence. Props
Props to you too for the wonderful comment!
Just picked up a double kick pedal after playing only a single pedal for 35 years. Your video has been very helpful. And thank you for talking about breathing and stretching!
Oh hey it's my pleasure! But don't need to overdo the stretching, only what's comfortable for you. And check out my new updated routine for 2024 here th-cam.com/video/SM-Wc6AOki0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=yfCPkMmnS302S3Hf
This guy is a wise sage of drumming
bro you're awesome. I'm so human. hahaha
Exactly what i was looking for, THANK YOU!
Glad I could help, thank you too!
So helpful for me because I'm using now double pedal thanks so much
All the best to your double bass drumming journey!
Thank you so much.... this is the same thing that people are selling and you are doing it for free ....!!!!I will be using this tool for practice ....thank you again and keep up the good work brother
You're most welcome, read the pinned comment for how I used this routine a year. Knowing how many times to use this and what the gradual progression should be is super important to doing it right. All the best to your journey💯
Nice step by step. Thanks for putting this out to help drummers improve.
My pleasure, thank you for the appreciation!
Thanks so much, from Argentina ❤!
I would also suggest working harder on your left. I got this from thomas lang but its also kinda common sense, but do something like 1 bar of 4/4 8th noted on your right, then 3 bars on your left
I also would switch it up and do the right for 1 beat then the other 3 beats do the left. Do any variation you can think of like that
Its helped a lot with my left foot control since i tend to alternate all the time unlike more drummers who will always lead with right foot on triplets or quintuplets
It also inadvertently helped with my speed too
Excellent suggestion. Totally agree 💯 the weak foot needs 3x the amount of work to catch up and that's usually where people are capped when it comes to progress.
This video is not only extremely helpful to develop feet technique, it is also teaching self awareness of the body, which most of the time we don't pay attention and then problems can happen, so for me it is a very valuable info from the beggining to the end of the video, stretches included, i'll start aplying this method, i think it's gonna work for me, also i'm subscribing for more! Keep up your great encouraging content! 🥁🔥
Thank you and welcome to AODHQ!! if you have any questions, ask at any time, really appreciate the wonderful words!
Dude this is so unbelievably helpful after the first double bass exercise before practicing each foot I did that and instantly felt more loose. Thank you so much
That's great to hear! Check out my newer ultimate double bass drumming routine 2.0, You can use both of them together or alternate between them. th-cam.com/video/SM-Wc6AOki0/w-d-xo.html&lc=UgyAc0mAMHo78JWow5l4AaABAg
Thank you so much! You are a fantastic instructor.
I love yoga, but I often get caught up in working too much to provide myself time to stretch. I really appreciate the inclusion of the stretches at the end, as it encouraged me to take time to relax instead of pushing onward with practice.
Thank you!
Cool! I used to do a bit of yoga but now I just stretch the muscles that need stretching haha. It's just what I need to prevent my injuries from returning, so that I can keep playing and practicing. Also the stretches help with muscle recovery and repair. Cheers thanks for noticing and I hope these exercises help you!
Great lesson, man. Thanks for sharing
Glad you liked it!
🔥🤘🏻😎🤘🏻🔥Great video, will start to do stretching more often.
😁🙌 Hope it helps!
Thank you master for this one. New subscriber here.
Thank you and welcome aboard! I'm no master though... my double bass speed is sub par compared to metal masters.
@@ArtOfDrummingHQ but when it comes to exercise ive found this more accurate than the other metal teacher. I like the exercise for real for real, specially for my left foot. Keep struggling.. Keep it up master. Thanks
This is a wonderful tutorial! Thank you for sharing!
You are so welcome and thank you :D
i'm 62 years old and thanks for these excises,,,, started to play drums for the excises.
Wow awesome, let's gooooooo!!! Hope they help!
So you finally did it! Thank you for the help and advice I really, my tendon is healing, I will incorporate the whole routine, keep the good work 🔱!
Hope it's healing well, take it easy and progressively crank it up. Thank you anyway!
Thank you, well done. I'm sweating now and my heart rates up! Will use this to start my practice.
Hope it helps you in the year ahead! Thank you for appreciating
hell fucking yes dude. I finally started to take ankle technique seriously and i can now say im starting to get the motion down! Its no longer coming from my shins! Still lots of work to do but you are such a godsend! Thank you!!!😊
Thank you and that's great to hear! Don't care where it's coming from as long as you've found your most efficient setup and can grow it!!!
@@ArtOfDrummingHQ I've been trying to brute force my way for years using the "incorrect" ankle technique where I was noticing my shins were on fire and couldn't progress past 170 bpm 16ths for a full measure. The last week or so I've just been focusing on singles, mostly my weak foot, and things are starting to click. My goal is to hit 185 bpm by may or June and I think I can get there if I stick with it.
Thank you! i will for shure be trying this out. getting better at double kick is a goal i've yet to achieve
All the best!
Absolutely well rounded routine-video. Congrats and ThankU
Thank you :) hope it helps!
cant lie i already nailed the process to take my double kick to the next level, but, this video was still great to watch and will still be apart of my journey - maybe its just cos this guy is a top dude
That's awesome 👍 happy you've got your double kick down, and I know you'll definitely keep growing in that regard since you're this open to practicing methods :)
I'm gonna def try these
Got a better updated routine here th-cam.com/video/SM-Wc6AOki0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=n-NAn_eAOFkUrdoK I recommend experimenting with both and alternating them as you see fit
I like how he says, “now it’s time for a similar exercise”
and it’s 32note blast beat at 300bpm
But really tho I like this video it’s just taking me 6 months to get past the first few exercises
Love this! People wana play like Matt Garstka (me included…lol) right after hearing him…killer warm up I’m gonna try. Also Congratz on 50k subs! Not an easy thing to do but you deserve it for the killer content you put out for the drumming community!!
I think you already play like Matt! Let me know if you do try this routine how it goes. It will help me to improve the format for future videos. Cheers and thank you for your well wishes too!
You say you want to play like Matt Garstka, but your name is Matt as well. That's interesting to say the least
Excellent work, thank you for sharing! Appreciate your dedication and discipline 👍🏼
My pleasure! Thanks so much too!
Thank you! This is the kind of routine I need.
Hope it helps!!
Great video, definitely gonna try it out. I finally got back behind my kit after about 5 years of away time. I have Iron Cobra Pros but have played other kits that I felt much more comfortable on and felt like I could get to high BPMs very easily. Getting my pedals tuned is a constant battle and I feel like I have a brain-block when trying to play faster. I'm going to keep working on my mind muscle connection and start using this routine. Thanks
make sure the pedals are not too loose in tension. Or too tight that you have trouble adapting. I use maxed spring tension on my pedals but trained gradually to get here. The tension needs to help support the weight of your foot and also help with the rebound of the beaters. Every other setting I don't mess with. The block you're talking about is what prevents people from playing faster. The block exists like a boss fight. You have to slay the boss to advance. Only a small percentage can advance because this boss is hard. Very hard.
All the best practice and patience :D need anymore help just ask!
What this really highlighted for me was the need to RE setup my kit. I play on a small electronic drumkit. Which I am TRULY grateful to even have, but at 194cm tall, I have specific sizing/spacing needs that aren't being addressed especially when I need to get to higher speeds/focus. To the point that even my left kick pedal is sliding while I play. Thanks for the great advice and the fun exercise!
Yeah setup can help a big deal especially from what you're saying about your size. Could sell your e kit and gett 1 where you can space the set out more ideally? Thanks for checking this video out man!
@@ArtOfDrummingHQ you're very welcome! I'm still able to make it work and I'm going to have to make adjustments with what I have as space is at s premium, presently. Thankfully, I still have some things that can be done to make this easier on me! XD
I am so shit at this point. Got through exercises 1 & 2 at the 100 and 110bpms but had to drop exercise 3 & 4 to 117bpm,
Exercises 5 & 6 to 69(nice)bpm. 7 I couldn’t get going and need to practise performing the exercise, and 8 was okay at 117bpm.
The stretches felt good too.
I’ll be back in 6 months! Thank you for this. 😊
Cheers! You can also try my double bass routine 2.0 which has 1 important modification although the rest of the workout follows the same principles in this video. Try alternating between the 2 workouts over a 1 year span. If you get bored switch, or switch at monthly/weekly intervals th-cam.com/video/SM-Wc6AOki0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=LJlPzaDl8uDO4xf5
Thanks a lot❤i never practiced anything like this. Helped me a lot to be motivated. 🙏👍🖐️
Cool hope you had fun! Thanks for showing your appreciation
Very helpful. I can do this now completely on time. Took me a month. 2 hours everyday after work I practice feet only until I got that down then I throw in my hands after a week of feet only. Now I have altered this a bit. When you do the single foot isolation exercise I don't do one foot at a time because I needed to feel and compare so I trade off 3 on right 3 on left then I do 5 on right and 5 on left back to back. It helped me compare and get accurate feeling on both feet. However I do isolation on limbs sometimes for a night still. This is great. Thank you.
I do that modification too from time to time! And I have a few other modifications to change things up every few weeks. Glad it's been working out for you, all because of your consistent work!!
@@ArtOfDrummingHQ I already know you're on top of it. You are a motivation of mine. Thanks much again mate.
Good stuff man ,
Thank you.
👍
My pleasure, hope it helps!
Great comprehensive routine. Thank you for sharing. I will be giving it a go for a while and see what happens.
Read the pinned comment for how I used this routine for a year. All the best!
Amazing ideas and techniques, this was very helpful for me. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful! 😁
The level 3 warm Up is actually my peak right now 😂
Thanks for the share. Hope you push through to a higher peak soon 💪
Thanks!
THANK YOU :) 👍
Awesome stuff, I've been incorporating yoga as full body warm up before my drum routine and as a cool down /stretching post for about a year and it's made a big difference in my recovery time and general drum fitness. Im so happy to see other fellow drummers demonstrating their physical routines in conjonction to their drum practice... Also loving the double bass routine ..ill try to remember to update in a month or two, note the improvement. Cheers man!
Thanks, I'm one of those guilty of not paying attention to my body until I got injured. Haha now it's absolutely necessary for growth, glad to hear your experience as well!!! And update whenever!
Swag! I Love how this quickly gets someone playing 16th notes at 170 mhmmmmm 👏🏻🐺💯⚡️⬆️
Thank you so much for this informative video, still learning double bass and will definitely try this!!
Try my 2.0 routine, I made some changes to make it even more effective, although both will serve you well and if you feel bored of one or the other you can switch between them too. Here's 2.0 th-cam.com/video/SM-Wc6AOki0/w-d-xo.html
I have been practicing with this video on all my techniques and I think it is helping me gradually still have a long way to go. I had to start out with it slower then increase gradually wish me luck.
Wonderful get consistent with this for 3 months and let me know how it goes
@@ArtOfDrummingHQ I will definitely do that I had a really good band practice tonight especially with my drumming and my double base so I think it is helping but I will definitely do that.
Thank you so much for the wonderful and thoroughly prepared material and knowledge you share. I'd like to share my own experience, which is to do the exercises involving groove (hihat + snare) legs only so as to remove any dependence from the other limbs. Also same exercise exchanging lead foot and also each foot separately (e.g. for straight 8ths I do just the "end" with the left foot, or even try to play the "e" in 16th mode etc). Lots of permutations by following a limb isolation approach.
Good stuff man, these definitely help tighten up control a lot 👍 I also did these during my years of practice
This is magic 😮😅
👍
Hi, thank you SO MUCH for these lessons! I realized that my left foot was in serious need of improvement from working on your exercise #5 - even with feet alone the left is much weaker compared to my right. I've come to the (most obvious) conclusion that if I ever hope to gain speed and precision with my double bass rolls, then both feet need to be at least CLOSE to the same level of control. I would previously work on singles and doubles for my left foot alone, but exercise #5 approaches this problem from a completely different angle - 3's & 5's! AWESOME! Thanks again!! 😁😎👍
I've got a short video coming up about left foot. And how I like to approach training it for speed and control. Hope it motivates you :) thanks I really appreciate your feedback and your kindness!
@@ArtOfDrummingHQ Thank you! You are the BEST drum teacher on TH-cam, you are talented, humble, intelligent with a great sense of humor and a BIG heart. You will go far, brother. I wish you lived in Los Angeles, we would be great friends! 😎👍

This is an excellent video! Thanks for posting it!!!🥁🥁🥁
My pleasure hope it helps !!!
ive done it and it really helps me get better as a beginner for double kick. thanks alot for making this video…. i will subscribe to this channel. more power to your channel
All the best to your double kick journey and thank you :)
great vid man, adding it to my routine
Glad you enjoyed it :)
Great routine Sir! I want to try this for a month but first...
Should I change my drive shaft before starting? My left pedal doesn't have rebound at all compare to the right one that goes to infinity.
Second, I would love to see you play some extreme metal stuff exploding that speed.
And finally. Congrats for the 50k Subs! 🪅🥳🎉 That's a great achievement right there! One of many more milestones to come.
if you can afford it get the upgrade. If not it's actually fine, I also practiced the last 4 years without that upgraded drive shaft and still reached beyond 200bpm. It's just harder of course, but it does make your left leg work harder (which could make the difference)
Thank you for your well wishes :D It's been 10 1/2 years of this channel, so 50k didn't come easy at all haha. And as for songs, do you have any to recommend?(No promises though, because I'm swarmed trying to make all the content that I have planned currently.
@@ArtOfDrummingHQ @ArtOfDrummingHQ Yeah! A long road behind and an even longer ahead. Keep going. I would like to suggest some from Dummu Borgir maybe or some Slipknot (that for sure will get tons is views), but it has to be something you like so I'd rather to see some of your choice. 🤓
Thank you
You're welcome 😊
Thank you for this….

Thank you hope it helps you :)
I love your work thank you so much
Thank you for showing your appreciation :D
Hi Wey, compliments on your great workout videos and thanks so much for posting them!! You are a genius! They are really good and I think they will be more helpful, beneficial and of effectiveness in the long run than the bass drum mastery or drum-technique academy video course. greetings, Dave
Hi Dave, I hope so too. This is all my heart and soul in this video to help more people achieve their double bass goals. Thank you for your super kind words!
eh this lesson solid sia it helped me out with covering “in the end”
esp the verses with the consecutive 16th notes on the bass drum, chorus can still tahan but the verse took me a while to get down
Cool glad I was able to help! Linkin Park for the win!!
Loved it!!!
Check out version 2.0 of my routine. It's better and can be used alone or in combination with version 1.0. th-cam.com/video/SM-Wc6AOki0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=z4mHFQcwJNd9PEqS
congrats on 50k!
Thank you!!
Thank you for sharing!
Hopefully it helps!
Been practicing a lot and was excited to get home from work to try this today. Turns out my feet, ankles, and legs didn’t work at all. Couldn’t even do 16th notes at 110bpm when normally that tempo is just fine for me LOL. Looks like I might need to take a few days off from the drums and then come back to it and try again 😢
Also that beat that’s from Matt and/or the other guy, that’s actually hard to play! As each quarter note is hitting with right foot, left foot, snare, then repeat. But as you try to speed it up it just get super confusing and entangling. I struggled to do that at 60bpm and here you are at 150 making it seem like nothing 😅
Oh hey yes probably a sign that you've been practicing too much and your muscles need 1-3 days to rest to recover. Double bass is very intensive and I too can't do it as well if I'm fatigued already.
The Matt pattern is optional, as in it's just a vocabulary building section, you'd build solid consistency just with the 1st 7 exercises. And you can do simpler fill vocabulary exercises. But if it does sound cool to you, just slow it down and do it in parts. Like just learn the 1st 4 notes, then just 1 bar. I've been practicing and using that pattern for 4 years already. So it definitely didn't come easy for me in the beginning.
Nice 🤘
Cheers!
I cannot thank you enough for this man. Used to be able to hit those fast tempos no problem when I was a teenager and doing sports full time, so I had the stamina and leg muscle tone to do it. But over time I've since lost that endurance and muscle memory to get to those higher speeds. Will be using these exercises for sure! Love the content man.
Oh my pleasure:) I hope you find that speed again, just crank this routine 4x a week for 6 months.
Great video! Thanks!!
Hope it helps!
I love how the LOB technique is sneaked into exercise 10. Shit's really effective, y'all
What's LOB?
@@ArtOfDrummingHQ Longer Out Breath technique. You’re tricking us into meditating, and it works! 🤣
Ohhhh. I fully endorse meditation hahahaha@@swindlehappy9309
Nice
Thanks
Just... THANKS 🙏
You're welcome!
I also want to know the basic movement of your foot / ankle / thigh and which muscle group you are using while doing the high bpm double base
Watch this short video for my basic muscle movements and speed th-cam.com/video/Q_QfPcSdFzc/w-d-xo.html There are also more useful videos in my double bass video playlist you can check out here th-cam.com/video/seZmjYkvIBw/w-d-xo.html
LOVE IT
Cheers!
All of your content is killer! I started using this routine recently and can tell a difference in a short time, thank you!!
Awesome! Let me know how it goes in a few months!
@@ArtOfDrummingHQ Already seeing a difference in my live shows… not getting tired and the times I use double bass, it’s much easier! Will keep doing this and increasing the bpm’s weekly - thanks!
@@drum1972 Bro I'm so happy for you :) thanks for the updates too! You'll help motivate more people too💪💯
Je to fajne. ! Its goood. Awesom..
Hope it helps!
this is it
great video, but i find i get way more out of it if i do a longer warmup, with more sixteenth notes and increasing tempos. it helps me be at peak performance for the actual exercises
Oh yes that can be more ideal. But that's why my exercises also don't hit peak tempo until exercise 7. It's a gradual progression between all the exercises.
I use “stick control”
But apply it to feet. Also, has anyone ever thought of some kind of lock to slide your foot into like bicycles have on their pedals … does that sound like something that would work?
The lock might be interesting but guess would be tricky to pull off the double stroke slide technique in those locks
Valeu!
Thank you very much for the tip!!!
Thank you very much for the tip!!!
I’m 63 years old
No one gets hurt practicing double bass unless there frail and weak
Great exercises but get into a gym if ur getting injured playing the drums
That's a very narrow view. Some people and a few of my students have told me they got injured, and some were 20 - 30 years old too. It's easy to overdo long term intensity. And not everyone is genetically built to handle the same stresses. Gym may/may not be the solution.
@@ArtOfDrummingHQ Not narrow view. Just physiology. No healthy male or female should injure there anterior tibialis or any tendon, muscle, ligament in leg or arms if healthy. They can get sore but not injured unless they have a pre-existing injury they are not aware of.
this🔥
For some reason whenever I practice I always end up playing worse then I started
Practice is meant to setback your muscles. You gotta tear them to grow them stronger. So yes you get worst in the short term. But long term with a good consistent routine and proper rest you'll see good results
I don’t use a double bass but I really need to improve my kick drum speed. What should I do?
Check out my single pedal technique here th-cam.com/users/shortsBI3NTywGQCM?si=11cFCOMGZXl3_yGc and you gotta practice mastering that, and also improve the speed and strength of your muscles with this 2nd video here(applied to your right leg)th-cam.com/users/shortsH-Iu3bImsJE?si=txZfDAlaluJcBV5u.
Also got more videos coming up in the near future about this topic so stay tuned to the channel
Thank you so much for this holistic video you've generously shared with us. =) And by the way, your playing is awesome. I have a quick question that I hope you can help me with. What technique do you recommend for quick doubles on a single pedal. Just two quick doubles in a groove. What technique do you recommend?
Here's my single kick double technique th-cam.com/users/shortsD-rfjTLyNAs?feature=share thanks for your wonderful words!
Hi! I’m trying to get my double pedal drumming faster and more precise. What tips can you provide? Great exercises by the way..
First make sure your pedals are working for you and not fighting your body, check with this video th-cam.com/video/iDlXB2NmM50/w-d-xo.htmlsi=MvrHL6XKOzMIMwmw. Theb find your weak muscle links, which one is having trouble contracting fast and controlled, and generally work on them all to increase speed and control(without pedals). Then hop on the drumset and dedicate practice time using these exercises to hone pedal technique. My Routine 2.0 is newer and better and incorporates those muscle group exercises th-cam.com/video/SM-Wc6AOki0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=gFGaLEqZQJ7ElbTp until you can control the lower leg muscles+upper leg muscles will you be able to play at all speeds in a controlled manner
