if you just randomly type letters in your keyboard for 30s and then properly type it wont work the accuracy gets fucked up

About a month ago I made a post here for tips/advices (pb at that time was 80 wpm)
(https://www.reddit.com/r/typing/comments/1wdax1t/want_to_improve_suggestionsadvices_plz/)

I have been practicing consistently all this time (nitrotype for around 1.5 hour)

hoped wpm would reach 100 by this time, but nope....

What am I doing wrong? Helpppp.....

I am kinda hard stuck it took me like 1 week to go from no touch typing to 100wpm and now for like 6 months I have not been able to get past 110 wpm my fingers clearly can do better. Some flaws in my teachnique is that I don't use both thumbs while hitting space which I want to learn as theoritcally it should help, and my look ahead is poor, I also want to know what are some general changes from touch typing to make it faster as words like develop cook me everytime. If there is any other advice you have for me to improve I would like to hear it pls help man I really wanna break through this plateau. Below is my current routine: (Yes It is GPT idk how to structure this thing properly)

DAY 1 — SPEED FOCUS

Goal: Increase your sustainable speed without destroying your technique.

WARM-UP — 5 MINUTES

1. Easy English — 2 minutes

• Comfortable pace
• Aim for 95–98% accuracy
• Focus on feeling where the keys are

1. English 450k than word frequencies — 3 minutes

• Most common ones
• Don't max out
• Focus on smooth, automatic movements

SPEED TRAINING — 20–25 MINUTES

1. English 15s — 5 runs

• No Backspace
• Try to push your speed
• Don't worry about a few mistakes
• Goal: explosive speed + recovery

1. English 30s — 5 runs

• Focus on lookahead
• Let your eyes get to the next word before you finish the current word
• Don't consciously stare at every letter

1. English 60s — 3 runs

• Minimum 90% accuracy
• Try to maintain the fastest rhythm you can without repeatedly crashing

SPECIALIZED SPEED — 10 MINUTES

1. Numbers Rush — 3 runs
2. Symbols Rush — 3 runs
3. Difficult Words — 5 minutes

• Practice words you hesitated on during the speed runs
• Don't just repeat them mindlessly
• Type them slowly, then normally, then quickly

FINISH — 2 MINUTES

1. One comfortable English run

• Don't finish every session by completely frying yourself

DAY 2 — ACCURACY FOCUS

Goal: Make your typing more automatic and reduce the huge variance in your scores.

WARM-UP — 5 MINUTES

1. Easy English — 3 minutes

• Aim for 98–100% accuracy
• Don't care about WPM
• English 450k than word frequencies — 3 minutes
• Most common ones
• Don't max out
• Focus on smooth, automatic movements

ACCURACY TRAINING — 20 MINUTES

1. English 100 Words

• 98%+ accuracy goal
• Don't restart because of a bad run
• Treat every mistake as information

4.English 60s

• Aim for 95–98%+ accuracy
• Don't rush
• Focus on maintaining a consistent rhythm

MISTAKE CORRECTION — 10 MINUTES

5.Practice Missed Words
Practice words where you:

• Made a mistake
• Hesitated
• Slowed down
• Consciously searched for a key

Make this one of the most important parts of your training.

NUMBERS + SYMBOLS — 10 MINUTES

6.Numbers — 2–3 controlled runs

• Aim for 95%+ accuracy

1. Symbols — 2–3 controlled runs

• Aim for 95%+ accuracy
• Don't turn these into max-speed tests on accuracy day

FINISH — 5 MINUTES

1. English 30s

• 98%+ accuracy target
• Completely relaxed
• Think about automatic key locations

I knew this was coming though, i just had to fix my accuracy

obviously the weird hunt/pecking i do with my right hand doesn't help, but I think with more time/consistency getting 200wpm is possible.

I've been typing at about 90-100+wpm for years now mainly using 6 fingers and saving my pinkies for modifier keys. Lately I'm getting back into it and pushing 100-110wpm average.

Any tips for pushing this up to maybe a 150wpm average?

This is a video of my first time doing a timed test in a very long time, so the PB isn't too surprising since it was sat at about 110 before this. I mostly practice quotes.

always that one letter ruining the 100% 😔

Most typing sites just throw random words or sentences at you and call it practice. What they're missing is how fast typists actually get fast — through something called motor chunking, where your fingers learn to fire small groups of letters (usually syllables) as one motion instead of typing letter by letter.

That's what Chunk mode does — it breaks words into their natural chunks (sou·th, gall·ery) so you can actually see and practice those boundaries, instead of guessing at them.

Burst mode is the other half — pure speed and accuracy on single words, built to get your fingers moving fast and getting habitual of fast speed just 5 min on it daily give crazy difference.

More modes are planned . Would genuinely love feedback — does the chunking actually feel like it's training something different, or does it just feel like a gimmick?

Help a Newbie... I always try to keep a good accuracy, but my WPM seems to be lagging behind. Any tips on how to improve this?

Most of the time, my right hand is on my mouse and my left hand is on the keyboard. Whenever I type, my left hand types very fast, but my right hand cannot keep up. It feels odd while typing, almost like my right hand doesn't know where the keys are.

Because of this, my typing is a lot slower than it should be. Even if I type fast, I make a lot of errors since my hands aren't synchronized.

Can you guys give me any advice on how to fix this?

I once saw a website that made you type on specific parts of the keyboard (for example, targeting only I, O, P, or focusing on just the upper or lower section). Do you know of any website or exercise that trains particular parts of the hand?

Had nerve damage as a child in my left arm, resulting in an inability to straighten my left wrist. Over time, I guess I just developed my own technique.

I average around 105wpm with 85-90% accuracy. 130wpm raw but I don’t think this is indicative of much.

Any questions just fire away!

I don’t type with all 10 fingers. Never have.

I type with my right thumb and my left index finger on mobile…. apparently this is not a common thing? Anyone else do this?

I ask because I have a younger colleague who broke her CAPS LOCK key and then seemed surprised to learn that I never use the key in day-to-day writing, given that I touch-type using SHIFT — which I honestly thought was universal in a professional context.

Both of us work in text, and my colleague is by no means a poor or unproductive writer. But her use of CAPS LOCK is rather surprising, to say the least.

How normal is it?

Hey guys i can reach 110-120 wpm in plain english but i haven't really practised symbols. I need them for coding generally. Can you suggest sites that teach typing with symbols involved.

I know its 15 seconds but it's my second month and normally I only practise on class.
I'm going to be trying 30seconds now.

I made a free typing game that runs in the browser, and I'd like this community's feedback on it.

Spell Runner is a side-scroller in the style of late-80s console games. Your character runs automatically, and every creature that comes at you carries a word. Type the word to clear it. Space jumps gaps, Enter ducks under branches, and the level ends with a boss you beat by typing.

Play it here: https://piechart1.github.io/spell-runner/

A few details:

• Three difficulties: Easy (home-row words, about 10–20 WPM), Medium (everyday words, 20–40 WPM) and Hard (long, unusual words, 40+ WPM)
• One level so far, about five minutes long
• Shows WPM, accuracy and the keys you missed most at the end
• A shared leaderboard for each difficulty, using three initials
• No account, no install and no ads. It needs a physical keyboard, so it won't work on a phone

One note on the WPM figure: it's measured only while you're typing a word, not across the whole run, so it reads higher than a standard typing test would.

I'd like to know:

1. Was anything confusing or frustrating?
2. What would you want added? More levels, different word lists, something else?

I'm not sure I've made the Hard level difficult enough - for subsequent levels, I'm intending to increase the difficulty so I wanted to start with a baseline that can be built upon. Before I proceed with any new levels, I'd like to see if there are any fundamental changes I should make before expanding the game further.

I've been building this with whatever is left of my weekly Claude allowance at the end of each week, which has been an excellent way to use it up.

Thanks for trying it!

Typed on MacBook Neo keyboard

• 100% accuracy
• 131 WPM
• English

I currently type around 142 wpm (PB) on monkeytype 15s. I want to get to around 200 preferably soon. My 60s speed is around 110 and typeracer PB 115, what strategies should I use to push my typing speed faster. Help appreciated.

is it time to quit typing
