During the time in my life when I was at my best, I used this method all the time, I'm talking back in the sixties. After practicing on a pillow I would get on my drums and play effortlessly. I became a bit of a legend in the area I lived in.
I can’t believe you don’t have 1M+ subs like El Estepario. You don’t just care about flexing on people, you actually care about HELPING other drummers!😊
This is great and you gained a subscriber! I really like that you talk about how LONG to practice. Most videos just show the exercises but never tell you, hey, you should seriously play for a long time.
Brendan thank you for teaching in your special way I admire and honor you Please give me some warm ups for buddy rich chops. I am a big big buddy rich fan please show me some buddy rich warm ups and ideas please dedicate this to Ray BOOM that would help me a buddy rich exercise thank you
Soon as I seen this vid I new it would be pillow . As a little kid I had hole kit made out of pillows . Only thing I found is when I started to play drum . I played so lowd . Coz it it had a rebound I wanted to play through it like a pillow
That poor pillow 😢 Beaten it up💪🏿. One thing that would help me follow your notation would be, if like another instructor, to put left and right strokes on separate lines. I read music notation well but at higher speeds trying to read letters written at the bottom of the staff while focusing on the actual rhythm just doesn't work for me. I can however follow left and right strokes when the notes are offset by just one line/space. Love your energy and I will sub and likeey!👍🥁
Great video, however, I think 3 to 4 hours of practice time every day is for single people or people who don’t have jobs lol. I’m married and have kids and I don’t think my wife would appreciate me spending 3 to 4 hours practicing everyday when I get home from work! 😂
Haha yep that was my practice routine in college! But also, the end of the video gives a more realistic approach. 10 minutes at the beginning of every practice session will make a huge difference.

@@UtwoBed I’ve truly never found a more efficient method. Glad to hear its standing the test of time
Great exercises for endurance and power, thanks Brendan, keep it up!

That's the goal! Thanks so much
I use to play some of these back in my marching band days. Completely forgot about them. Thank you for this will definitely start using these again.
@@jacobliford Absolutely - some things never go out of style.
The zildjian reflex pad has a dead and bouncy side, its about time evans updated that old pad.
Haha you're probably right. The glue is worn out on the rubber and is coming off the wood, but I love it.
I did that as a kid to not annoy the neighbours and it did wonders to the chops. Now I'm using a moongel workout pad.
Another perk to pillow practicing! That's great.

Absolutely - that's huge key in making progress.

Haha very nice! Yes, it does take a bit of an adjustment once you're back on real drums.
You sir, have a new subscriber!! Great job 👏 👍 👌 🙌

But I don't watch baseball 😁

Haha that's what my high school teacher used to say to me and it's stuck in my mind. "Put on a baseball game and chop out!"
