Our muscles don’t have little brains that remember how to move. It has to be a subconscious process, right?
And why is is that sometimes when we slow down to think about a highly practiced action, it becomes more difficult to do?

It’s a shortcut program in your brain.
When you hop in the car you don’t mentally think “insert foot, grab wheel, sit on seat, rotate torso, insert other leg”. You just hit the “get in car” program in your mind and the subconscious takes care of the rest.
Same for any other repetitive task. Once you have practiced it a few times you can do it “just like riding a bike”.
