Well, as I have explained many times, I'm a simple guy. In football I liked to hit people [had I played college football and stayed healthy I have no doubt that I would have been drafted as a strong safety---I was a better football player than I was a baseball player].
As regards baseball I was drafted as a hitter and of course my favorite part of baseball WAS hitting. And from an early age I gravitated towards drummers and drumming [my dad played as a hobby and introduced me to African and jazz drummers when I was 6].
Bottom line----and what all 3 have in common---I very much like to HIT SHIT!! And here's a guy who also likes to hit shit [one of my favorite drummers] Gergo Borlai:
As I have said before, there are numerous similarities between developing drum and swinging mastery. Simply put, both require a good deal of deliberative practice.
So as to develop speed, timing, precision--- the mastery of all 3 of which entails a very refined degree muscular control and kinesthetic awareness/sensitivity.
Lastly this: Gergo breaks the mold as regards the stereotype that fat guys are not capable of being able to move pretty damn fast!!
