I thought they train their reflexes for tennis, thanks.

[dwayneCollin]

Thank you! I always wondered why people who drive cars that go 235 mph needed fast reflexes. Ingenious

[RaviSankarRao]

I thought they wanted to quickly scratch their balls while driving at 300 kmph

[levitheguy]

Yes I’ve also always wondered why chefs turn on their stoves

[ryantracey]

No one would ever question why people reaching at high speeds would train their reflexes...

[JackBradley]

No way, I honestly thought they would train their reflexes for something other than driving, thank you so much

This is like asking, why a swimmer trains itself to swim.

[___MiddleAgedMen]

Technically it’s training their reaction time, reflexes are an involuntary response to stimuli reaction time is voluntary

[SoapMcCallister]

this has the same energy as asking why a firefighter trains agility

[gf]

Damn I thought racing at high speeds where you need to adapt extremely quickly in tense situations or suffer serious injury wouldn’t need fast reactions, thanks for clearing this up

[brendangardiner]

Next time: ever wonder why F1 drivers have their eyes open while driving?

"Did you ever wonder why F1 drivers train their reflexes"

No. Never.

I’ve always wondered why sprinters have to run fast, this solves a piece of the puzzle

I lived in florida and had to do this to avoid a blind idiot turning into me last year. Never have I been more thankful for 15 years of goalkeeper training. I was going 55+ and he came from the non-turning lane on opposite side of road. Absolutely out of nowhere.

We actually do the same excercise at boxing. It just trains your reflexes in general. Anyone can practice this if you have a tennis ball. (Works best bc it bounces back if you drop it. Just stretch both of your arms holding the tennis ball in one hand, then drop it and catch if with your other hand.

Finally a clip that shows the same person doing the practice, and the performance. Pierre is underrated btw.

"Ever wonder why a swimmer practices in the water?"

[icey]

No. I don’t think I’ve ever wondered that seems quite obvious

I thought they practised being a ball boy in their car, but thanks for the insight!
