One of my guys on TikTok asked me to teach them one of these #drumchops for a #beginnerdrummer . Like any #drumlick, if you work it up, it sounds great... but this one is a little simpler to #practicedrums with if you are a #beginnerondrums. . . . #drums #drumset #drummer #drumsolo #drummersofinstagram #drumlessonrepost #teachersofinstagram #drumteacher #drumteacherlife #music #practicemakesperfect @vicfirth @pearl_drums @evansdrumheads @drummuff (at Loganville, Georgia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CO-y1-fB7lS/?igshid=153kyimwt2dcz

Things have been busy as I’m designing more promotional posters using Photoshop but I still get stuck into the #lifetimewarmup once a day. 170bpm is now my new “normal” and I am trying to consolidate this tempo. Each day I play through each section of the routine using a timer, for thirty seconds. This is inspired by the Endurance Challenge when Tommy would play each element for a minute. This has had the main benefit of strengthening my Paradiddles and Flam Paradiddles, but the whole routine benefits. Eventually I will aim for the full Endurance Challenge but for now, Thirty Seconds is plenty! #realfeelpads #practicedrums #practiceroutine #practiceroutines #practiceroutineformusicians #drums #drumming #technique #technicalpractice #rudiments #rudiment #flams #singlestrokes #doublestrokes #lifetimewarmup #tommyigoe #tommyigoegrooveessentials #tommyigoelifetimewarmingup #realfeelpad #realfeelpadsforlife #endurance #endurancelifetime (at Leicester, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDlvgtUnBRF/?igshid=1rn3wqc362aa3

I watched an interview with Tommy Aldridge yesterday (thanks to @global2dom) and was interested to hear the Whitesnake drummer talk about drummers needing to learn the fundamentals - Rudiments. I wish I had taken them more seriously as a kid but am glad since discovering @tommyigoe and @johnawooton to have addressed that over the last eight years or so. #realfeelpads #practicedrums #practiceroutine #practiceroutines #practiceroutineformusicians #drums #drumming #technique #technicalpractice #rudiments #rudiment #flams #singlestrokes #doublestrokes #lifetimewarmup #tommyigoe #tommyigoegrooveessentials #tommyigoelifetimewarmingup #realfeelpad #realfeelpadsforlife #grabandgo #grabandgolifetime (at Leicester, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/CC8fcFSnN3g/?igshid=1i2lcl0sueduk

And today things have stepped up a gear. Again. #realfeelpads #practicedrums #practiceroutine #practiceroutines #practiceroutineformusicians #drums #drumming #technique #technicalpractice #rudiments #rudiment #flams #singlestrokes #doublestrokes #lifetimewarmup #tommyigoe #tommyigoegrooveessentials #tommyigoelifetimewarmingup #realfeelpad #realfeelpadsforlife #grabandgo #grabandgolifetime (at Leicester, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/CC6sYK3HAR0/?igshid=1gnnt07d7pww9

So I had to slow everything down 10-20bpm - 180bpm felt ludicrously fast. I have been trying to make 180 my new normal but it’s like sprinting when I am more used to marathons. I will persevere. #realfeelpads #practicedrums #practiceroutine #practiceroutines #practiceroutineformusicians #drums #drumming #technique #technicalpractice #rudiments #rudiment #flams #singlestrokes #doublestrokes #lifetimewarmup #tommyigoe #tommyigoegrooveessentials #tommyigoelifetimewarmingup #realfeelpad #realfeelpadsforlife #grabandgo #grabandgolifetime (at Leicester, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/CC4IQU_nJZF/?igshid=12shjlbuqfonf

Nearly two years on from “redundancy“, I am finally hitting the Advanced Lifetime Warmup. Admittedly the most progress has been made during Lockdown. There’s a lesson there. The paradiddle variations and triplet rolls are making progress so overall, I am feeling like I have really achieved something important. Trick now is to stay on top of it and move towards 200bpm! It’s important to have goals. #realfeelpads #practicedrums #practiceroutine #practiceroutines #practiceroutineformusicians #drums #drumming #technique #technicalpractice #rudiments #rudiment #flams #singlestrokes #doublestrokes #lifetimewarmup #tommyigoe #tommyigoegrooveessentials #tommyigoelifetimewarmingup #realfeelpad #realfeelpadsforlife #grabandgo #grabandgolifetime (at Leicester, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCvZ75YnPyL/?igshid=xe8gtavvtxnp

Have enjoyed posting full practice sessions of the #lifetimewarmup over the last few days on IGTV. Yesterday’s was a real achievement. #realfeelpads #practicedrums #practiceroutine #practiceroutines #practiceroutineformusicians #drums #drumming #technique #technicalpractice #rudiments #rudiment #flams #singlestrokes #doublestrokes #lifetimewarmup #tommyigoe #tommyigoegrooveessentials #tommyigoelifetimewarmingup #realfeelpad #realfeelpadsforlife #grabandgo #grabandgolifetime (at Leicester, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCbhgsyByBH/?igshid=pfceqwbimezv
