Need More Exercise? Try Drumming.

You're in the car driving to wherever when you hear your favorite song come on. All the sudden a light comes on in your head that tells you that you know this song and before you know it your hands are on their way tapping and dancing along with your favorite tune. Everyone is a natural drummer to some extent and the best part is it's a great way to exercise and relieve stress! 

BBC News did an excellent article on the amount of calories burned per hour. BBC News shows that some drummers who are performing fast paced songs can burn up to 400-600 calories an hour. Although when checking sites MyFitnessPal.com and FitDay.com, they estimated around 200 calories burned per hour. According to the same site, MyFitnessPal.com, the estimated amount of calories is about equal to running a 6-min mile. Twice.  

Regardless of where you look you may find yourself surprised at just how hard drummers are working. (even when they have big grins on their faces!) And it doesn't stop there, these previous numbers are not inclusive to the drummers who are perfecting double bass techniques. If you really wanted to turn up the heat and burn some serious calories, you could look into double bass techniques to get all 4 of your limbs moving and grooving to your favorite tunes while burning some serious calories. 

By now I can only assume you are calculating the costs for a drum kit and thinking about how to deal with all the noise that comes with it. The solution? 

The Drum Work Out only requires the basic low costing tools any drummer would have! Sticks (Duh), a practice pad, a stand for the practice pad, and a seat (throne). These tools allow anyone to learn how to use their hands to groove out to their favorite songs and rhythms, all at a reasonable volume. Of course, noise will always come from banging a hard wood stick onto a surface of anything, but try dampening your practice pads with a towel if the noise is still too much! 

The Drum Work Out will incorporate physical exercises, guided technique, and most importantly a fun time while working out! Feel good about burning off calories and building progress towards mastering the rhythms of your favorite songs.
