131 bars of 3/4 -- not four -- at 135 BPM, 2:54 of playing on crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot.
100 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is how many notes a second it asks for.
snare through bars 3-8, hi-hat through bars 9-17, ride through bars 18-22, toms through bars 23-24, hi-hat through bars 25-31 and ride through bars 32-36, and 16 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 10-16, 25-30 and 39-44, and 2 more places -- 25% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.

It cuts the song into 40 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. Each one opens on a reduction you can already play and adds the notes back a rung at a time, with a tempo to reach and a gate to pass before the next.
135 BPM, in 3/4, with the time kept in thirty-second notes. The room plays it at any tempo from a quarter of that up to the written one, against the record where the record can follow.
100 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is how many notes a second it asks for. The beat itself is 78 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
131 bars, about 2:54 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 40 exercises over 15 sittings, about 25 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.
