That's the case for anybody that is doing something that requires muscle memory. Giving your muscles time to adapt to "knowing" reactionary things. After all, you're not supposed to go to the gym, for instance, everyday. Gotta give your muscles time to adapt then go back at it. But first you have to tell your body to "memorize" these things, by constant repetition. Once it has, give it some time to adapt. Surprised you never went through that as an FG player.
