The exercises cover different combinations of alternating and grouped kick-snare patterns along with a jazz cymbal beat.

The exercises cover alternating patterns with either the bass drum or snare drum leading, and grouped patterns of two with the bass drum or snare drum leading.

In some exercises, the kick-snare patterns are displaced by playing them slightly ahead or behind the beat to work on flexibility.
