The Only 3 Rudiments You Need To Do In 2020! 🔥Practice Aid Video

[@mikeingman4841]

After almost 40 years of not playing drums and trying again my wife bought me a beautiful gretsch set for my birthday it's like starting over again it's not like getting on a bike and riding after you than off a bike for some years. Rob has the discipline and determination to help everybody who wants to play this instrument I Am very grateful to him and thank him and will continue watching him for inspiration and help Because as you get older you're not as agile as you used to be. I'm in my sixties and I want to play drums again and I am not going to let anything get in my way Thanks Rob

Wow, this is some exercise @RobBeatdownBrown! I've been using it for two long practice days now, and the progress I'm making is making me very happy. I'm 53, picked up playing again this January '24 after 25 years doing other things , now it's November '24. Working on improving my technique and coordination. Back in those days they're was no youtube, the amount of information we got access to today is overwhelming, but this is one of the exercises that stands out for me. So simple, but so effective. Thank you!

Hey Rob! I've been doing this exercise for years, and it really helped me a lot. That's why I was so excited when I saw you teaching it on this video. Now, what I did with the first half (single strokes) of the exercise is I broke it down to 4 parts: 1 measure of single strokes 1 measure of double strokes 1 measure of single strokes 1 measure of inverted double strokes... Then to the pattern. Again, props to you BeatDown Brown! From Palawan DrumLab, Philippines!

Watching the close-up consistency of the height of the sticks is impressive. Such a consistent sound.

[@conga205]

After playing congas and working as a percussionist for over 45 years, I took up kit at the age of 60. My weakness is developing a consistent practice schedule. I have a Roland KV kit in my apartment, and a DW setup at a friends (bassist) house. My timing is good, and I can "groove", but I'm struggling to get my rudiments and fundamentals down with as much intensity as I bring to my congas. My main struggle, beyond the fundamentals, is dealing with feeling "too old". Just turned 66 yesterday. I used to play all over the world (congas, African Dance), and I let myself slip into inactivity when I was working full time. No sob story here, just being honest. I love music, and I've found out that life isn't the same without it. Thank you Rob for sharing your knowledge and fire with us. And it's inspiring to see so many learning from what you bring. I'm determined to do the same.

[@namelesslamp12]

Seeing somebody learning something new at 60ish it's amazing to me. I am a beginner aswell but I am 20 lmao. From what I have learned a very big part of learning it's "mental". I could pretend to fell as you but I really can't. Just consider 50% is work 50% is mental. You can do this keep growing musically live is too short to fell old. Keep it up :)

[@kenf8563]

Rob, I’ve been watching your videos for about a couple of years now, you personally taught me to tune my drums easily to even getting that maximum thumpification out of my bass. It’s ironic because I just received my practice pad early this week and been using it daily. I will commit to these 3 rudiments even after mastering them. While you were showing us these 3 important rudiments I was thinking how great it would be to incorporate them around the kit. I know you’ve done videos on rudiments before but this one rocks. Thank you.

[@bradleygilmer441]

This is THE BEST exercise I have seen on KZbin - I am loving it. Practiced these a few times today - already improving. I find going back to the doubles after the syncopated section the most challenging - hard to relax enough to get a nice even double bounce after playing the accents. Thank you!

[@metagordy]

This is a great exercise. I have a similar one that I play when warming up. 8 note pattern RllRllrrLrrLrrll Rob, one thing I'd like add as a suggestion to all who watched this video, these patterns you just showed us could also be played with feet. Maybe even at the same time as hands, in unison or with right hand lead and left foot lead for a challenge

[@bradleygilmer441]

Couldn't help thinking the same myself.

[@davidlean1060]

I do something similar. The rudiment on my hands while playing it half time with my feet. Rlrl rlrl (as 16ths) along with r l r l(as1/8ths). I straighten out to just a half time rlrl when playing the syncopated part. This is fun once you get to the paradiddles!

[@davidlean1060]

@Cheryl Graham Basically, take the first 5 exrecises in Stick control (includes single stroke right and then left lead and the the same with double strokes). When playing the right lead double stroke ie rr ll, play a rr ll half time with the feet. Basically, it is a variation on simon Phillips exercise where he plays a paradiddle in his hands and plays one half time with his feet at the same time. Change to a regular rl with the feet when playing the syncopated bit. I always like to use my feet while exerciseing my hands, so I am always looking for easy ways to keep them occupied while I practice my rudimants with my hands.

[@danielclee1]

Love your stuff. Any chance you can do something on counting - not the same as timekeeping per se, but simply counting in your head while playing, as the 'noise' can get loud in my head. In particular, between 4-and & 1 I sometimes lose it, particularly with a fill. And yet this is where groove starts. My favourite drummer is Simon Phillips (Rob, you're no.1 educator by far) , who if you watch closely is always counting, and when it's 33/8 you know it's a skill that needs nailing.

I experienced a similar situation in my late 50s. Hadn't played drums for 30 years, picked up a friends copy of Modern Drummer and decided to try playing again. Went nuts and bought a high end Mapex kit and started practicing. Down to a small 5 piece Yamaha kit now and still struggling to improve. Found Rob's website a few years ago and have been a follower ever since. Really tough to learn new things as you age but at least Rob makes it easy to comprehend. Love his no bull approach, sense of humour and his obvious love for what he does.

[@andyracksthecams]

Great lesson. I'll have some of that for my first approach to drums this year. I mainly play guitar but this is so helpful. Cheers Rob.

[@jjadaddy]

What you do, Rob, and maybe subconsciously, is play lightly, and close to the pad, which is very beneficial. For me, I think focusing on light touch with whatever sticking pattern, and staying just above the head, aids greatly in stick control. You're a good soul big guy, and a hell of a player. Thank you for taking the time that you do.

[@2ndAveScents]

Thank you so much for this Rob. I'm just learning and got myself sticks and practice pad to develop my hands and sticking, get my brain working right before I even sit at a kit.

[@reginaldgreen3700]

Being a physical therapist and a drummer , I love that you are talking about posture. During your rudiments, try not to keep the forward head posture for too long looking down at the snare drum. This will strain the back of your neck and cause you to slump sit and strain your low back. Use your peripheral vision and tuck your chin to look at your hands. Thanks for all your hard work and education, keep it it up.

For me, Rob, regarding the first exercise, is keeping the doubles low and even, especially where you alternate with the paradiddle to get to the other hand. Thanks, so much for putting the time in that you do for all of us.

[@mrkrinkle8007]

Thanks for this, Rob. One of my goals for this year is to become a better drummer. Part of my plan to execute this goal is to commit to a daily rudiment routine, which I've never really done. I followed your advice from your previous video to focus solely on the single, double, and paradiddle. But I've struggled to put any real structure around it and I need something to keep it interesting. Hopefully, this does the trick. Just curious, what metronome app are you using?

[@Jath2112]

I love these exercises! The longer I have been playing, the more I keep coming back to...singles...doubles....and diddles... almost any time I feel weakness... it is me realizing I made it another few years without having to fit a double on a particular beat with a particular hand...or something similar... it is....always one little adjustment... like getting used to landing on my left hand on the e of 2 or whatever... just some small simple thing I notice I have overlooked... exercises like this really help to rapidly break down the tiny little barriers between your hands and unlock all sorts of things you really can never imagine at first. Do these for ten years... you'll discover things....for ten straight years... simple, but limitless. Cheers man, thanks for sharing your craft!

[@Jath2112]

* I will be scouring through your uploads now, but I want to ask: Do you have some similar exercises that you like for flams, and especially for NOT- Flams? Besides singles and doubles and diddles..diddle... it seems like a HUGE key to musical playing is being able to hit things cleanly, simultaneously with control...and flam with intention... A lot of the difference between a beginner and a pro stems from...just... being able to hit two things at the same time consistently
