after 2 years or so of drumming i realized my left hand was much slower then my right, i guess i had never tried many rudiments and i had always just gotten used to the stronger right hand. So i started exercising my left hand/arm more, lifting weights, doing some wrist curls, and just generally trying to use my left hand more in my drumming.
the good news: i can play alot faster with my left hand now
the bad news: now i suck
i figure its because ive been so used to having the weaker left that i had always drummed that way. now i jump the gun too much when i do fills- my left hand hits faster than i expect. Even some basic beats seem to lack feel now.
is this something that i will eventually get used to? is it just a hurdle i have to jump over to the 'next level' of drumming?
