66 bars, 4:28, at 56 BPM: slow enough that every note is exposed. Crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot and nothing else.
50 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.
silence through bars 1-5, hi-hat through bars 6-7, silence through bars 8-13 and hi-hat through bars 14-66.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 15-18, 32-35 and 41-48, and 1 more place -- 40.7% of every bar the kit plays. Learn that one and most of the song is already under your hands.

It cuts the song into 20 exercises -- the grooves, the fills, and the joins between sections, which is where players actually come off -- and puts them in the order a teacher would.

56 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in thirty-second notes. Slow enough to hear every mistake, which is why the room lets you sit at the written tempo rather than under it.
50 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 32 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
66 bars, about 4:28 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 20 exercises over 5 sittings, about 29 minutes each.
crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.
