Even if you could punch as hard as Tyson or throw as well as Joe Montana, you'd still get owned if you didn't have their reflex speed. Luckily, this ability to get faster reflexes isn't all genetic, it's a skill that can be learned and mastered.
When we think about the process involved to get faster reflexes, we've got to break it down into its parts to understand it. The complete reflexive action is comprised of 3 separate parts: Recognition, Evaluation, and Motion.
The Recognition is the time interval between when you first perceive a threat and when you begin your response.
The Evaluation is the time it takes you to decide what you're going to do, be it duck a punch or pass the ball.
The Motion is simply how fast you can actually make your body move.
