Blind Drills
Also called: eyes closed drills, eyes-closed practice
Definition
Practicing movement with eyes closed for about 10 minutes per session so the brain leans on the proprioceptive and vestibular systems instead of vision, training body-position sense (gains reported up to 46%) and movement control (around 45%). The progression goes from basics in place to turn prep to single and double turns before adding vision back, and the gains carry over to eyes-open performance.
