Tips for practicing rudiments? (self.drums)

I've been a musician for quite a while but finally bought myself a drum kit.

As a guitarist I know not all practice is good practice, or at least productive practice. For example, practicing scales up and down the neck will help learn those scales... but can make soloing sound super robotic.

Was hoping to get some advice for being productive while practicing rudiments, but any other practice advice is welcome too :)

The upside is that your never need to find or match the scale!

Lol, not having to worry about scales is something I've actually been so excited about as a guitarist. Which might be a little ironic considering changing keys is so easy on guitar...

Thanks for the advice!
