So recently I've been getting faster at double bass (at least I think so), I haven't been wailing the bass drum with all my might as much and I feel like I can go about 160 bpm 16ths on a good day (which improved from my 140bpm 16ths a few months ago). I also feel like I'm using less of my legs, and using half ankles half legs, hence why I'm not hitting the bass drum as hard.
However, in the beginning of my practices for the last couple of months, after going through a whole song on double bass, my left shin burns and is super tight. Even when I try and stretch it, it's still stiff and hurts like a bitch, so I usually have to wait a minute or so before it goes away.
But after practice the last couple of days, it seems to have gotten worse. I could barely stand on it after the first song I played, and I couldn't even move it let alone stretch it until waiting like 5 minutes. But after the warmup period, it doesn't hurt anymore. Then it comes back the beginning of the next practice.
Keep in mind it completely goes away after a matter of minutes. But is this a bad thing? Could I be doing something wrong? Or is it a matter of stretching and warming up better, or maybe even a good thing due to muscles building up?
pls respond
Horrible left shin splint after double bass drumming?
