Well, I've been having a hard time playing drums on certain days because of my workouts.
I used to be pretty active in highschool but then got an injury in Football which kept me out of the gym for quite some time. The past few weeks I've gotten back into the training, and well let's just say I haven't been very good with easing myself back into it.
My friend and I went pretty hard back in the day, and as such I'm getting back into it with as much, perhaps more energy and enthusiasm.
I find on Mondays, I won't play much double kick (Monday is my leg day) as it just gets a little to painful after a while. Find myself practicing more with the hi hat (always a good thing I guess).
On Tuesdays I rarely play drums for more than about 30 mins, I just can't do it (Arm days are pretty damn heavy, as I do drop sets and generally spend about an hour and a half on arms).
Wednesdays I'm generally still recovering from Tuesday, and again, only find myself playing drums for about 30 minutes.
The rest of the week is pretty much the same old, however I find from Monday-Wednesday I'm really not playing drums to my full potential because my body is just so damn sore/tired.
Anyway, was just wondering if any of you also spend 3-5 days working out, and if so, does it affect your playing?
