i bet you remember more then you think! we have people come in all the time and say "i haven't done anything for 10 years" then 15 minutes later they can stumble through a form or technique and they don't know how lol it's amazing when u think about it!
muscle memory... 2000 clean reps of any movement, and your brain lists it as a "canned cycle".... an auto-pilot manuever, if you will... that's why you practice stuff like panic stops, emergency zig-zags, martial arts forms, fast draw, etc.... if the codgers that stumble through the remembered moves were in the same physical condition they were when last they practiced, the forms would probably be much more precisely executed....
