I presume it's 1 2 3 4 then 1 2 3 4. 5...8? Sort of. But I never think that way, I don't involve theory when I play, or notes. I just play if that makes sense.Had one drum lesson last year, the guy threw notes at me straight away. Never went back again. I more like show me how it's done and I do it, or self teach most times.
