Re: Drum fatigue ?
Not only could you be physically fatigued, but mentally as well. Both will take a toll on your playing.
I work 50+ hours a week at a pretty physical job, practice 5 hours a week, and also gig out 3-4 times a month. Not to mention I'm 50 years old. I can attest that at times either one, or both kinds of fatigue, have affected my play. Sometime so dramatically that I must dumb down what I'm doing, just to be able to keep tempo. It doesn't help my singing or even remembering lyrics at these times either.
With a practice regimen such as yours, it may take some time for your body to adjust to the rigors, but if you are in decent shape to begin with it will happen.
