speed drill
Timed repetition exercise
A speed drill is an exercise designed to build quickness through rapid repetition.
Athletes run speed drills to improve foot speed and reaction time; students do speed drills to master multiplication tables or vocabulary.
The emphasis is on pace rather than deliberation: We ran through speed drills until our responses became automatic.
