*Some days I just feels like my hands cannot touch type at all. (Edited Title)
For the past 2 or 3 weeks I was on a hot streak of reaching 90 WPM with 95% accuracy compared to 2 months ago where my average WPM would reach around 75 to 80 WPM. 100+ WPM results kept appearing in front of my eyes during my 90 WPM period where my fingers were typing so fast which I could only had hoped to reach that level of speed a year ago where 100+ WPM would only appear once every 2 months . This week for whatever reason, my hands feel like they just failed. Not able to remember the position they were supposed to be. It's so BAD that I could even reach as low as 50 WPM. I just wanna know if anybody had faced the same situation that I've been in. and what do you guys do to overcome it?
Thanks for reading this far.

Are you me? Seriously though, fully relate to this! I've yet to hit the magic 100wpm (honestly starting to think it may never happen!) but my speed can vary from 80 all the way down to 50.
What's even more frustrating is that when I slow down to be more accurate, I find my accuracy drops (which also affects speed) Some days it's there, some days it's not.
Sometimes even really difficult words flow like water, with my fingers dancing effortlessly over the keys, and other days it take forty attempts to type 'the' correctly. Sigh. What I'm saying is, I totally feel your pain!

Don't underestimate yourself and just keep on typing.
Judging from your results I feel like you're wayyyy better than me to be completely honest. Your progression is way more consistent compared to my progression which looks just like a roller-coaster track.
Keep typing and eventually you'll hit the 100WPM mark and after you overcome that barrier I'm sure you'll have no sweat typing even faster than you are now.
