Paradiddle Variation Combination 🥁 Here’s an exercise from the @tommyigoe DVD, Great Hands For a Lifetime. This is one of my favorites throughout the whole disc! I love the way it feels in the hands. Really good exercise to get you out of your comfort zone! • I teach drums so as you can imagine, I own ALOT of books, and instructional drum videos. In my opinion, Tommy’s Great Hands is one of the best you can buy. If you want to learn correctly, and like a challenge, pick this up! The concepts never get old. You can truly use this for a lifetime! #drummer #drums #drumming #drum #drummers #paradiddle #greathandsforalifetime #tommyigoe #drumpractice #rudiments #drumexercise #paradiddlechallenge #practicepad #dogsofinstagram #drumteacher #drumstudent #learningdrums #rlrrlrll #druminstructor #drumeducation #drumline #drumvideo #drumlife #drummersofinstagram #drumsticks #drumrudiments #percussion #drumsharing @loscabosdrumsticks @drum.beats.on.sheets @instadrumvids @hudsonmusicofficial (at Blakely, Pennsylvania) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqFhYvYH6eR/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=380z0n416a5g

Step 1 of the #igoechallenge Assignment Days 31-45 - The Chart. Question is, do I go to Step 2 (transcribing Tommy’s original parts) or Step 3 (creating a drum part)? Probably 3, where I get creative and compose my own part? I have a tiny bit of orchestral experience and love prog rock! Decision time. #lifetimewarmup #tommyigoe #tommyigoegrooveessentials #tommyigoelifetimewarmingup #realfeelpad #realfeelpadsforlife #realfeelpads #practicedrums #practiceroutine #practiceroutines #practiceroutineformusicians #drums #drumming #technique #technicalpractice #rudiments #rudiment #flams #singlestrokes #doublestrokes (at Leicester, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_wm3kvHZF7/?igshid=1chdz5rn532l3

I set a goal for myself recently to work on some of the individual elements of Tommy Igoe’s Lifetime Warmup - #igoechallenge. The aim was to increase the quality/speed of these elements to an Advanced level, specifically to match the Advanced Backing Track that comes with the Great Hands package. Have made good progress - the only elements I have really struggled with are the all Paradiddles (excepting the paradiddlediddles). But have slowed them down again and began to push forward again. The Flam stuff is really falling into place. #lifetimewarmup #tommyigoe #tommyigoegrooveessentials #tommyigoelifetimewarmingup #realfeelpad #realfeelpads https://www.instagram.com/p/B_nNLybHx8S/?igshid=1y1s6lbgzln64

PRACTICE TOOLS Some notes on my practice routine, associated mp3s and apps, which is based on Tommy Igoe’s Lifetime Warmup. DVD and MP3s Tommy Igoe’s Lifetime Warmup Basic 130bpm mp3 Intermediate 150bpm mp3 Advanced 180bpm mp3 APPS Music Speed Changer I use this to speed up the basic warmup from its original tempo to 150bpm and above. I practice this half a dozen times before attempting the intermediate. Drumate This fully customizable app allows me to practice specific rudiments in the warmup at increasing tempos, starting at 150bpm and stepping up to 180bpm (which I can barely play at all). Vital to getting my paradiddles up to speed.

My favourite practice routine is Tommy Igoe's lifetime Warmup. I'm concentrating on the Intermediate 150bpm version, using the Music Speed Changer app to drop the tempo to a more manageable 135-140bpm - 92% of the actual tempo. It's all singles doubles paradiddles with some flam and drag rudiments thrown in. Love it. Even at 92% it's still taxing but the plan is to push it up by a minimum of a percentage ever few weeks. I'm really in a position to focus on my technique now with daily practice. #tommyigoe #lifetime #lifetimewarmup #warmup #drumtechnique #intermediate #intermediatewarmup #intermediatelifetimewarmup #kickdrum #floortom #racktom #acrolite #ludwigacrolite #ludwigacrolitesnare #code #codedrumhead #codedrumheads #codedrumheadendorsee #codedrumheadsendorsee #teamcode #ludwigsnare #ludwigrocker #ludwigrockers #ludwigdrums #sabian #sabiancymbals #sabianxplosion #sabianaaxplosion #sabianaaxplosioncymbal #sabianaaxplosioncymbals
