Think of it like the way some fighters train... if they need to last 3 rounds, they might train for 6. If you want to be able to run a marathon, doing exercises for your legs will only help so much, the way you're gonna get fit enough for it is by running many marathons... So if you want to be able to go fucking bananas whilst drumming at your gigs, practise going fucking bananas whilst you practise, except do it for an hour whilst you practise, and give it hell every time. You'll get used to it eventually.

I remember when I was trying to learn to play New Born by Muse on bass, it used to destroy my forearms, so I just kept doing it until I could do it...
