The exercise you must avoid for double bass drumming

The exercise you must avoid for double bass drumming
Many drummers isolate each of their feet. They do this to build endurance.
But, on double bass, their playing sounds uneven. It lacks accuracy.
When you try to use your hands, the gap becomes even clearer.
It's like forcing two rhythms together. This results in a disjointed sound.
The issue is a lack of timing. It is between the feet and hands.
You must develop a unified rhythm. It should use all limbs.

That snare with the phone audio or whatever. 😂

After doing this for a few days I already feel myself getting comfortable with double bass. If you want to get better at double bass do this exercise!!! Thank you for this amazing lesson🙂

Breaking up a paradiddle between 1) right hand/right foot 2) left hand left foot 3) right hand / both feet 4) left hand / both feet, orchestrate around the set, thank me later PS you can also break up the paradiddle in different ways too

Dunno bro your bass sounds weird, it's like too stiff no hollowness no deep bass? Why is this?

[@papai-by3bo]

in my experience this happens only when we first attempt using the ankles, and it's due to lack of coordination derived from lack of balance bc we're not used to have our legs/feet floating over the pedals. it's all about where our attention is focused. once we realize we're failing because we can't control our upper legs' muscles it all resolves by itself. my point is it's not about practicing this or that pattern, but being aware of what's happening between our waist and the knees :) Derek Roddy talks about this in one of his instructional videos. very on point.

...ughh.. I can't even do this simple beat/ excercise..might be time to just give up.

[@user-xv5xv7hg3y]

Thanks for your time for this very important lesson 😊

[@GumbaBumpy]

Thank You very much .

[@TGWMM]

this is why i have a big respect for drummers, they have an Unbelievable motor skills Beside from being the foundation (mostly, because sometimes it's the bass) of the music❤

[@zac-mana9885]

Very useful thanks!

[@arctus35]

Very useful tip especially for a beginner like me. I also have a question. When using the heel up technique if you aren't burying the beater I feel like I get false hits. Should I just bury the beater or is it happening because I'm a beginner. Apreciate the content.

[@richieberger645]

Awesome I will try this thanks dude

[@Indigoxvii]

This bass drum sounds fuckin good

[@nathanminick1696]

Cool

[@jazzdrumguy5044]

If only my bass drum was filled with popcorn!

[@PirateR4ptor]

I have always had a problem I never hear anyone else talk about.. I have tried adjusting to try all tensions on the springs, different beaters, and swapped drive shafts, but I always have the problem of the beaters smashing the top of my foot when playing at full volume.

[@the_terrorizer]

This is a great exercise. For me, I had to first learn each foot, practice doubles until I could do it mindlessly/text people and use my phone while practicing to a metronome, and only then did I start introducing a basic drum beat. Just takes time and a lotttttt of practice
