Touch Typing vs. Hunt and Peck: Why Form Matters

Many people can achieve 60 WPM using just two fingers (Hunt and Peck). However, they will eventually hit a hard ceiling.

Furthermore, hunt and peck requires constant neck movement, leading to severe ergonomic strain over long coding or writing sessions. Make the switch today—it will be slow for the first two weeks, but you will thank yourself for the rest of your life.
