Training Sprinters: "Practice Makes Permanent
    We are all familiar with the old cliché "practice makes perfect". In the science of speed development, however, it is more precise to say "practice makes permanent". This is especially true where the neuro-muscular system is concerned. Since the nervous system cannot distinguish between the results you desire and what you actually rehearse, it will simply master the movements you do most often.. So in training, whatever you do becomes permanently etched into the neuro-muscular system. Athletes must therefore avoid doing lazy drills, lackluster exercise routines, or general training that strays too far from the movements specific to their event specialty."
