@@emmaswain3084 I’ve tried them all, and I’d recommend one with a gum rubber top, like the one being used in this video. It’s also quiet, so your housemates won’t complain. ;]
I haven’t watched the video yet, but my uncle has been drumming for 35 years and he told me one exercise to help with speed is do 1 left, 1 right, 2 left, 2 right, etc up to 8 then go back down to 1. It’s a good exercise and helped me a lot. Btw thanks for the video. 👍
Just wanted to chime in (as a beginner) and say that DBO is definitely beginner-friendly. As Gabe says, it starts as basic as picking up sticks and takes off from there. The pace is not intimidating and I have found that the skills taught are very well organized. I have found that it's very well thought out and planned for good, steady progress. I'm impressed that Gabe and his team have put together such a great program.
That means the world to me, thank you so much for sharing and for being a part of the #DBOFamily! I'm honored to help guide you along your drumming journey!
@@zamasoo255 As a beginner, pretty much any routine repeatedly done for one month is going to help with speed. I plan to go through Gabe's 'challenges' once I have decent hand/foot skills to truly test the effectiveness, but I'm confident that they will be effective.
Agreed. And the price point is very fair. For less than $30/month (if you don’t pay by the year), you get more content than you could possibly consume in that time frame. It’s very well organized, fairly easy to follow, I would recommend this program for any beginner interested in learning how to play the drums.
God loves y’all, have a great night or day and be safe, Jesus is King! read the Bible! and Give thanks to God! Love the Lord our God! the Most High! Amen! Romans 5:19 - For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the one man the many will be made righteous. Amen! 2 Corinthians 12:9 - But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.”Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. Amen!
"if you're only playing loud, then you're not a very dynamic drummer". Love the clip of Steve Moore playing while you said that. Steve being an exceptionally good and amazingly dynamic drummer.
I attended the 5 day hand speed challenge. It really helps me a lot( just for sharing my single doubles already reach 170 bpm). Thx Gabe for the free course and different pdf for me to practice.
I'm a old timer who always wanted to learn the drums. I happened to find your channel and I am impressed with your presentation, knowledge but most of all your lessons. I feel I can progress ( and that there is hope) to become a competent drummer. Thank you !🥁👍 Subscribed!
Great video! Alot of amazing tips and excercises for not only the begginers but allso for drummers that are getting back into playing for fun!...Thank you again! Lots of love!!
Man I ha e been working on my singles my doubles and my triples as well as my paradidles I know I misspelled it. But as a beginner that is almost 43 I am wishing I was aloud to play the drums when I was in band class lol you are amazing it is kind of complicated with the rudiments you are explaining but I can see how it is worth it. And the further along I get I will definitely watch this video again. I love it and you. God bless you.
Im not where I want to be since I discovered your channel a couple months ago, but Ive definitely improved and really practicing the techniques you teach and starting off slow on the metronome and working my way up has helped. Finally up to 130 bpm with no mistakes 😅 I know its nothing really but youre absolutely the GOAT for your channel with peak quality. Also I Prevail slaps harder than my step dad.
Thanks for the help! I hope to become really fast, it sucks to have this limit in all the songs I want to play, I have good coordination but I really lack in this department
Two extremely helpful books for any drummer. 1) Stick Control for the Snare Drummer by George Lawrence Stone and 2) Progressive Steps to Syncopation for the Modern Drummer by Ted Reed. Great drummers know the content of these books by heart, even if they’ve never read them. Very common required reading/practicing by drum instructors for several decades, although some teachers will tell their students to purchase the books and practice practice practice the content until it becomes second mature to the drummer. Other teachers will create lessons/lesson plans based entirely on the content of these books, often without mentioning the books by name or author. Whether done intentionally or unintentionally, this gives the illusion that the teacher came up with the lesson plan, not the author. When practiced as suggested, magic happens and the drummer becomes magnificent in his or her drumming capabilities. The reputation of the instructor increases in a very positive manner when they, the teacher, has chosen not to mention the books or authors, as the instructor is given credit for creating a brilliant plan to improve the playing capabilities of their student drummers.
I appreciate your videos and instructions, they are very well thought out and helpful. I don't know if anyone has mentioned this, but I noticed that the third bar of the six-stroke roll is written incorrectly. I was sight reading the exercise and it threw me for a few measures until I realized the mistake. Thanks again for creating ask of this wonderful content.
Nice series of practice patterns. Fluid technique, perfection of movement harmonious to the bounce speed, and stamina exercises are what creates speed ultimately. It doesn't really matter what exercises you play, as long as they include all the bounce stroke possibilities, singles, doubles, triplets, quadruplets, quintuplets. I'm guessing the bro shows this in lessons 1 and 2. Gladstone bounce exercises help the development of this, you can use the Gladstone approach with finger and or wrist movements. Except at the end of stamina techniques when muscles are tiring (stop at that point) don't tense. Don't practice at a speed where you start tense, practicing without relaxed fluid movements will take you backwards. Which ever speed you start at, playing relaxed with repetition you'll soon get up to the next speed above
I have passion for Drumming but I don't have access to one I'm in Liberia 🇱🇷 I know this is not where I should explain my problem or expert to get my problem solve I want to learn more but I don't have access to drum to practice so I sometimes feel sad.
Hi DBO. I just want to say, that this video, is really inspiring me to get faster hands, and I think it helps. I just have one problem: when I play on my practice pad, it feels like my left hand is stuck, when I play the push-pull technique, and that my right hand is way more flexible. I’m not sure why, but it doesn’t feel right. Is there anything I can do to improve my left hand?
I'm going to start right now,so Day 1,08-24-2021and challenge myself, even though I have some experience with drumming, I have to practice my fundamentals,and want to get faster.so again thank you for the tips I will comment about my progress in 1,to 2 weeks and until then,happy drumming.
This is what I have been looking for. The thing is that I don't know how to count/make use of my time signature together with my rudiments I only know how to play the rudiments but don't know how to count. I would love it if you can explain them to me
Hey, I'm having some issues with push/pull, I can't seem to get the rebound you do, and the only way to do it is to use my wrist, which seems kind of pointless considering its about not using your wrist, I was wondering if I could get some more insight into how to do it?
hola, espero puedas traducir esto amigo, esta genial tus ejercicios voy a tratar de hacerlos durante esos 30 dias me trasare esa meta, tambien me guataria acceder a tus curzos mas me hace falta el dinero, pero gracias muy genial tus videos bendiciones...
Because you can do each of these excercises for a lifetime, it's really hard to know when you're "done" with each part. For me rhe last part never been an issue, because I've never managed to get the rudiments up to the speed point where my muscles have to improve.
I really like your lessons. 😍💜️ But there is a small problem I have difficulty in understanding the English language. But I will definitely tell you the results after practicing somehow.😊💜️🤘 Love from sri lanka 💜️🇱🇰
Hey that's a cool technique. I been practicing pera diddle because it common tech for jazz drumming. I can see it and hear the difference in rhythm. :3
Super helpfully video. But way most drummer when play on practice pad hold drumsticks on the balance point of the stick but when they play on drum kit they hold in the end of the stick?
Speeding up on one surface is atleast easy but speeding it up around the entire kit is another hard story no matter how you master all of these techniques.
Hi, my foot is rightie and my hand is leftie. What's your advice as far as set up on the kit. Open hand on a kit set up for right hand drummers makes more sense to me, any thoughts? I have been playing drums here and there in the past but, for the last 13 months I have been playing the drums for at least 3 times a week. I like your teaching! I Can definitely relate!
I have a disabled left hand. I have a trick of wearing a velcro glove and I have velcro on the stick too..This utterly destroys my ability to control the stick in any serious way, however it does help me when my hand simply tried opening its fingers ( it does that occasionaly ) Even mooe annoying is that my right leg and left ankle and my back, are all suffering too, and sometimes I simply dont kick when I need to kick and sometimes I kick when I dont want to, and similarly, I sometimes dont open the hat when I need to, and this is down to spinal issues, as well as having 12 breaks in my femur, then developing a bone infectio, then having 7 taken out of the femur, and having to lose 60% of the muscle due to the spread of the infection, and as for the spine, 4 breaks in my back and 3 in my neck, putting me into a wheelchair and after 4 years I managed to get out, but with serious issues... My drumming has taken a massive MASSIVE hit, but I still love to play, albeit very badly.
Wait a minute… I enjoy playing drums and also love collecting all kinds of tarantula species. Is the opening beat the theme played in The Tarantula Collective theme?
man the more I watch videos like this the more i'm glad I didn't start with traditional drum lessons because I think I wouldn'et have stuck with it like I had guitar and piano. cause honestly this traditional style of teaching like this bores the fk out of me. I'm so thankful I started on guitar hero drums and just enjoying the game so much I got good enough to play pretty much all songs on expert. I developed a lot of the skills he talks about in this video just from that but I was having fun doing it and getting to play a long with songs I really enjoy right from the jump. now after having a proper electric kit for awhile and hitting the ceiling of "winging it" I am a bit more interested to refine some of my techniques which lead me here but man if you just wanna start drumming and have fun, get an electric kit and youtube easier songs on rockband and just play along. I just feel like playing paradiddles before ever even playing along to music would make anyone just about quite
I’ve been doing every exercise for 45 minutes for the past five days, it’s good because I’ve been playing on and off for ten years and I really want to make up for lost time. My catalog of rudiments has certainly grown and my dynamics are a little more present, however I notice that with my doubles on one day my right hand is on point and the left feels bloated and out of sync and the next day it’s the other way around. Any suggestions?
I would guess you're right hand dominant? Some good advice that an old friend gave me is that no matter how much you practice with both hands your dominant side will always be better unless you're truly ambidextrous. Personally I'm right handed and so my left always feels a little behind. What I like to do is double everything for my left hand. Whatever i'm practicing the left hand does everything twice. It helps to level the field between both hands. For some the difference isn't as apparent and they won't have to try as hard. For me personally I have to put a lot of effort into the left hand to get it even with the right. Just bad genetics I guess lol.
30+ years guitar player here with limited movement range on both wrists due to some multiple fractures. 2 weeks ago i finally pulled the trigger on a drum kit and started playing, as much as the drum has always been an intimidating instrument, the more i practice on a pad and on the set, i have a lot of fun even though with my age and limb conditions showing up. Those exercises you post makes playing drums easier. It actually helps loosening my fingers for playing guitar with less pain as my fingers tends to "lock". Thank you for the tricks and tips!!

"if you're only playing loud, then you're not a very dynamic drummer". Love the clip of Steve Moore playing while you said that.
Steve being an exceptionally good and amazingly dynamic drummer.
i noticed that too, i was like... uhhh?
He looks like he's playing loud but he is great a dynamics despite how it looks. Lol
Seriously - why call out Steve?
Yeah, I think he put that clip not because of that particular drummer, but because it looks so chaotic and mad, Steve Moore is so funny
I think he’s just using the clip just for transition and that’s pretty much it

Im a new drummer myself, so I’m definitely gonna try doing some of these techniques ✨

If I wanted to learn more of a metal style of playing drums Is DBO gunna be right for me?
I play darabukah, not kit, and I'm looking to increase my speed and precision. This video gave me some good ideas for practice. Thank you!
Amazing indeed. You're a good teacher. It have really helped me improve.
I’m a marching drummer so this is my nature to go, SPEEED!
Great Lesson. Love the sequence @6:54.

nice touch at 4,59 :D great vid by the way, thanks :)
I love I prevail so seeing the drumsticks that said I prevail on it was cool, not sure if it was the band or just a brand but it's still cool

howd it go
How’s it going
Would you suggest using Metronome and increase the speed everyday to do this exercise?
Worthy lesson in general but that rudiment ladder is gold!

Thanks Mr Gabe

Are the 2 days rest per week important for improvement, or can you do it 7 days a week?
