Never having played any drums before, I basically have no endurance on my feet for playing the bass pedal...

I finally found a good use for the Beginner Mode. I try to play the fast songs (overkill, ace of spades, war ensemble, etc) on beginner mode, only using the bass pedals.

I try to do this 2 times a day...playing those songs 4-5 times till my feet are really tired...

Can do this using dual bass, or just use one foot for the whole song. Its quite a workout.

Please share your tips.

If you're just building endurance, why not just move your feet up and down while you're surfing the web, or when you're just sitting? >___>

the best way is to use your left foot instead of your right foot for a while, it will very weird at first and your right foot will still want to hit the beat even though it is not on a pedal, but after a good week of doing this, you should start getting the hang of, it and then it is just like building endurance with your right foot except your using your left foot. play songs with constant bass pedal like overkill, since it is steady bass, it really isn't too difficult for you foot to actually hit accurately, the only issue you should run into is, your foot can't keep up. this is where no fail is your best friend.

Pretty much this. But when you do it with a pedal you get the right feeling, I mean, you know you're pressing on a pedal. Not a big difference though.
