1. muscle memory

   Muscle memory is the ability of the body's muscles to perform certain physical tasks or movements automatically and efficiently after repetitive practice. It's a form of procedural memory that involves consolidating a specific motor task into memory through repetition, which then allows for the performance of that task without conscious effort. This can apply to various activities like playing an instrument, typing, riding a bike, or playing a sport.

1. Muscle memory

   Muscle memory has been used synonymously with motor learning, which is a form of procedural memory that involves consolidating a specific motor task into memory through repetition. When a movement is repeated over time, a long-term muscle memory is created for that task, eventually allowing it to be performed without conscious effort. This process decreases the need for attention and creates maximum efficiency within the motor and memory systems. Examples of muscle memory are found in many everyday activities that become automatic and improve with practice, such as riding a bicycle, typing on a keyboard, typing in a PIN, playing a melody or phrase on a musical instrument, playing video games, or performing different algorithms for a Rubik's Cube.
