Muscle memory, as I understand it, is related to repetition of movement. The Term "muscle memory" is a misnomer. No muscles have memory. The brain in conjunction with the rest of the body learn repetitive motions so that they come more easily. Kinda a Darwinian thing. Typing is an ideal example of "muscle memory." Takes time and a lot of initial effort and repitition. Yes, neurons are attached to the mucsles that move the body, but it is the strengthening of the motions via repetition that helps the police or military or citizen that make us quicker, more accurate, etc.
What I leaned in school, and what has helped me in many things I do. Like they say, How do you get to Carnegie Hall? Practice, practice, practice.
