Human muscles acquire memory very slowly, so once they acquire it, they forget it very slowly. For example:
For table tennis, muscle memory effect has both advantages and disadvantages. The most typical, such as someone's pull is the result of his repeated muscle memory. Whether this action is right or wrong, it is very difficult to change it.

According to the content of memory, memory can be divided into four types:
1. Image memory
Memory with the content of perceiving the image of things is called image memory. These specific images can be visual, auditory, olfactory, tactile or taste images. For example, a person's memory of a painting he has seen or a piece of music he has heard is an image memory. The remarkable feature of this kind of memory is that it retains the perceptual characteristics of things and has typical intuition.
2. Emotional memory
It is a memory based on emotions or emotions experienced in the past. For example, students' memories of the happy mood when they received the university admission notice. In the process of understanding things or interacting with people, people always have certain emotional color or content, which is also stored in the brain as the content of memory and becomes a part of people's psychological content.
3. Logical memory
It is a memory in the form of thoughts, concepts or propositions. For example, the memory of mathematical theorems, formulas, philosophical propositions and so on. This kind of memory is based on abstract logical thinking and has the characteristics of generality, comprehension and logic.
4. Action memory (motor memory)
It is based on the memory of people's past operation behavior. All actions and action patterns that people keep in their minds belong to action memory. For example:
Gymnastics, physical education class's martial arts routines, and the operation process of the experimental class will all leave some traces in your mind. This kind of memory is of great significance to the consistency and accuracy of human movements and is the basis for the formation of motor skills.
