ONE MINUTE WARMUP #1: Countdown + Kick Fill Ins

PDF Here

A short and powerful warmup exercise. We start with an exercise called countdown, simple premise: 1 Right, then 1 Left, 2 Rights then 2 Lefts etc… Drum line players do this sort of exercise a lot, in this video we go up to 4, but the sky is the limit - go for 20!

Next we fill in kicks: first 16th note triplets, then 32nd notes, then we alternate triplets between right hands and 32nd notes between left hands.

Good for the hands, good for the feet, good for the brain.

Happy shedding!
