Might be late to but... There's a... major difference to Japan' indoor crowds and outdoor crowds. 😬

One of my fav things about AAL is at this point it's a band of three powerlifters

Matt's application of rudiments around the kit is always so geometrically pristine. I wonder what it would be like if he tried to play as chaotically and unpredictably as possible, while staying within the bounds of the material's structure and feel, and his own energy's patterning.

@Guy Buddy With pushups you do extend the elbow, so it does work your triceps to some degree, but I say it's not great at working arms because it isn't a pure elbow extension, it also uses chest and shoulder. Not to mention it neglects the other function of the arm which is elbow flexion.
