Cool exercise I use to build strength in my fingers, from Gary Chaffee's book - Technique Patterns. It uses each finger individually, which helps build speed, strength and dexterity. When my teacher first showed me these exercises many years ago, I was shocked to find that I barely used my little finger on my left hand at the time. I probably wouldn't advocate playing like this as it's a little awkward compared to playing with all three fingers, as per the norm. But it does help to isolate any problems you may have and it's kinda fun. I am playing two notes with each finger but there are other, less challenging exercises in Gary's book. #drums #drumexercise #drumexercises #drumlessons #drumlesson #vicfirth #garychaffee
