Muscle Memory – A Brief Overview
Muscle memory is simply described as a type of movement with which the muscles become familiar with over time. Through repetition of a certain movement you are gradually building neural pathways. Without thinking, you are able to perform certain movements which you had to think about doing before.
When practicing a new movement there is a high level of brain function. After a while of practicing and through trial and error the movement becomes second nature. When doing something for the first time your brain needs to coordinate all the various perceptual, cognitive and physical signals needed to perform the movement. This is a little beyond what the brain is used to and that’s why it feels awkward at first.
