Greetings All!
Has anybody heard any mention of how many repititions a technique needs to be done before you have built up great muscle memory for that technique? I guess hours would also do as I could calculate by multiplying hours x approx. reps/hour.
I'm just starting out (first class was last week). I was practicing a couple basic moves that I was taught and I just set a goal to repeat them 500 times a day until my next class(which is once a week for now). On my way to work, I started to think that somebody must have a rough number that I could use in my training and that number should be close to what is required to build up some great muscle memory (e.g., 30,000).
I'm not sure if I'm asking a valid question or not. Just asking it makes me also think about the time portion of the equation. If I repeated a technique 30,000 in 30 years(example), does that mean I have built up muscle memory for that technique?
Your thoughts?
Just curious!
