5 Stretches for Drummers

[@xDEFUZExMASTERx]

watching this after being self taught and playing locally for years. i feel like an idiot. i've never realized how important this is. please for the love of god, stretch before you play. im 22 yrs old and can already feel the effects of drumming without ever stretching.

Wait until you're 56. Shoulders are killing

[@crownquiat]

these stretches are life savers dude thank you so much

[@guyincogneto8979]

I like that last one. Being 56 with arthiritis in both shoulders, that was the one I could feel.

[@MAD1450]

Thank you so much. You are a life (hand) saver. ❤

[@BrendrumJones]

You're welcome im glad it helped you

Merci beaucoup !

[@SnowyMango]

Wow this is great! Really helped with some numbness I was having. Think it also helped with some discomfort from being on a computer keyboard for work all day. Perhaps very similar muscle and nerve groups.

Hey, you’re more than welcome, thanks for watching 👀

[@krissford7780]

This worked great for me, especially the clapping. 😂

[@BrendrumJones]

@@krissford7780 excellent

[@puttygutt]

Excellent video! I feel better already. Another thing I learned from your video is that I need to play a lot more! Holy smokes, those calluses on your hands! How much do you play?

[@BrendrumJones]

Thanks Peter, Think that was going heaven on the rowing machine, but play a lot of gigs and some of them are percussion. I find the Cajon beats up the hands a lot.

Also: If you have thumb pain like in the beginning of the video, try sticks that have a coating on them like vic firth's double glaze sticks. They arent as slippery as regular sticks so you dont have to grip them as hard.

Have you considered a video for post drumming cool downs? Equally vital part of arm/hand care.

[@BrendrumJones]

Great suggestion, I actually have been having issues with my tendents lately

[@devonkenny2154]

Thank you really useful ...just joined an indi band , so practicing a lot more n noticed pain in right shoulder ...your video was clear to follow too 😊

[@BrendrumJones]

great im glad it helped you.

[@TheForbiddenMoon]

if i don't stretch before drumming my arthritis kicks in and destroyes me. i found doing push ups helps the most for it gives and even stretch on my hands

[@THEblink1920]

This was really helpful! I’m about to go on tour and I wanted to make sure I had some warmups to stay stretched

[@BrendrumJones]

Good stuff best of luck with the tour

[@crownquiat]

my forearms are usually on fireee

[@BrendrumJones]

I hear ya

[@Gar8dunlevi]

Can I say I'm a bit disappointed as I thought it said 5 sketches for drummers. I thought I was about to see the finest Brendan Jones comedy sketches

[@BrendrumJones]

Oh well, LOL

[@munavir4946]

Is there any legs or feet warm up?

[@sonnyoc4455]

First

[@BrendrumJones]

Yesh
