Why drummers are stuck below 140 bpm (with their feet)

Many drummers find themselves stuck in the 130-150 bpm range (when it comes to double bass drumming), unable to push past that invisible barrier, no matter how much they practice.

The problem is however how to cultivate the ankle motion ? Leg motion starts more or less simply with a sequence of "individual strokes" and the typical end here is the mentioned 140. When using ankle you have to control a kind of circular movement (much like moeller strokes) that ned a certain ground speed...so the "up the ladder" approach with ankle motion starts then already at quite a speed. A speed that makes it sometimes already too hard to coordinate both feet to deliver precise, (alternating) single strokes...

@@drumtechniqueacademy The only two things I can think of are how some drummers are able to play fast with ankles when they sit lower and/or parallel with the floor. Also the use of "pads" to raise the rear of the footboard. I can't figure out how that helps?

What are those rings used to weigh down the practice bass pad? Thank you.

You're right, i am stucking between 140 and 145 bpm for months... I will try to follow the tips of the videos. But there is one thing, that i didn't understand. After practicing only with the double pedal at which speed i should start to practice on the drum?at 160 bpm? Does that mean at the beginning it's better to skip playing the range 145-159 Bpm? Thanks

I'm stuck below 120 bpm so what about it? I don't think ankle technique will solve that problem at that speed since it's supposed to be 150+... What do I do?

you are right - this right here is an ankle technique tutorial that focuses on double bass speed (just as mentioned on the thumbnail). You can find plenty of other beginner double bass tutorials that focus on slow double bass drumming on our channel...
