|
|
So today I was jumping around on the trampoline we have in our garden, quite intensively for about 30 mins. (actually this happened about a month ago, but only now could I get to making it (read: I was too damn lazy). Anyhow, after jumping and getting tired and making flips (forward flip, backward is lolawkward and so-totally-NOT-doing-that), I went back into the house and started doing some X+ songs. I noticed that I was way quicker with my double bass. As it turned out, the trampoline really warmed me up great. I could almost get to the speed of, like, On Broken Glass and such.
Did anybody try this? (*hint hint* go try it!) It was really cool not having as much trouble with some quicker parts.
(I usually don't really warm up my feet much, since warming up when playing heel-down, in my experience, only tires me out.)
So anyway: Comments, thoughs, experiences plox? =)

Standard calf exercices (Using a step and like 100-200 reps) is GREAT to warm-up train for double bass. _________________

When I saw this, I clicked on it thinking double bass as in the instrument, and there was going to be someone trying to play a double bass on a trampoline or something.
But seriously, this sounds like a brilliant idea, when I get my new drum controller, I'm going to get a trampoline to go with it. |

Every time I sit down, I move my legs in a double bass motion and have for at least 6-7 years. Im really fidgety. So when I actually got double bass I coud pretty much do Beast and the Harlot speeds, and with a bit more practice I got up to Raining Blood speeds. Im moving my legs right now actually, I always do. Being restless is great xD _________________

Thanks guys, but I really didn't intend this topic to be about how to warm up your leg muscles for double bass. The input is appreciated, but I'm mostly looking for responses on the trampoline thing _________________
