Preparing for speed. Focus on "Preparatory activity in premotor and motor cortex reflects the speed of the upcoming reach".

It is generally accepted that movements can be prepared before their execution, but what preparation entails is not precisely understood. Some computational models suggest that preparation involves the optimization of a “desired trajectory” that describes the movement in its entirety, prior to
