use things like metronoming where you're queuing your attention to some external cue, some stimulus, in this case, an auditory stimulus most likely and trying to generate more repetitions per unit time.

The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.

Not only can you increase the number of repetitions, errors and successes, but for some reason and we don't know why, the regular cadence of the tone of the metronome and the fact that you are anchoring your movements to some external force, to some external pressure or cue seems to accelerate the plasticity and the changes and the acquisition of skills beyond what it would be if you just did the same number of repetitions without that outside pressure.
what you're essentially doing is you're creating an outside pressure a contingency so that you generate again more errors so it's all about the errors that you get and if you harness your attention to this outside contingency this metronome that's firing off and saying now go now go now go not only can you increase the number of repetitions errors and successes but for some reason and we don't know why the regular Cadence of the tone of the metronome and the fact that you are anchoring your movements to some external Force to some external pressure or Q seems to accelerate the plasticity and the changes and the acquisition of skills beyond what it would be if you just did the same number of repetitions without that outside pressure
if you do that what athletes find is they can perform more repetitions they can generate more output you can increase speed a number of really interesting things that are being done with auditory metronom
