The use of metronomes is often seen as a means of excessive control in movement and training in general. However, when used strategically, the metronome can acts as a temporal scaffold that stabilises neural control when the system is noisy, injured, or actually relearning. Its value does not lies in dictating how movement should look like, but in supporting when movement unfolds.

Skilled movement does not emerge from isolated positions or bio-mechanical landmarks and checkpoints. It is likely the product of temporally organized patterns that the human system naturally stabilizes. Thus, rhythm can be defined as a key feature of skilled human movement and modern coaching practices.
