Drumline warm-ups II: the same warm-ups at tempo, and the double beat on the kit

Every drumline warm-up from part I, as quick as it has to be to count as intermediate, plus the full triplet roll. On the kit: the double beat inside two-hand hats and around the drums, two accents walking through the hats, the 3-grid with the kick in the middle of the triplet, triples and the six-stroke roll around the toms. A song to play along with every day (two tracks).

This path is self-guided practice: each day you work against a reference the app plays and judge your own progress. DrumShed does not listen to your playing, score your accuracy, or measure your timing. Enrolling is an All Access feature ($5.99/mo, or lifetime with Founding Member); free members can browse the whole plan in the app first.
