[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 842195"] I once made a reference to muscle memory to an ex-FBS OL from my alma mater who had gone on to become an M.D. With a straight face he said the same thing. We might have been talking about the golf swing. Of course everybody knows muscles have no memory. The reference is to the unconsious, instinctual memory of a muscular motion that resides in the brain or "mind". Think about those moments when you were in the zone, nothing but net from 3-point land, striping an iron shot to the flag, zipping a football on a rope 30 yards to the receiver's fingertips. Were you thinking your way through the mechanics? Of course not; that would get you a crappy result. Did you "remember" those mechanics from prior repetitions even if they were not conscious? Of course you did. Because it is unconscious it just seems like the muscles remembered what to do. But we know it was the brain doing the remembering. [/QUOTE]
