Description

Want to play drums injury-free into your 70s and beyond?

I sure do.

Today's video guest, Brandon Green, was coaching elite athletes when a high school friend's struggle with injury inspired him to utilize his skills to help drummers. Since then, Brandon founded the Drum Mechanics YouTube and Instagram channels, where he breaks down the setup and movement of some of your favorite drummers, and gives tons of free advice to help all drummers improve our setup and movement.

I wasn't an uninterested party. Since becoming a "tall guy" I've always struggled with "Ichabod Crane Posture", and over the past couple of years I've been experimenting with setup mental cues, and exercises to help me move better.

Brandon weighs in on the posture conundrum from both philosophical and practical angles.

Then I ask him to help resolve something I've always had confusion about: rack tom angle. And the answer surprised me. (But I'm making a change.)
