HELLO alan You have responded me to the question abou the weight.that it is all in the activity and not weight issues.can you (as much as possible with writing limits) to explain that to me....if Im playing a group of notes at a very fast tempo and i want to play them once piano and a second time forte,what am I suppose to change? lift them higher (which is unlogicall if I want to play them and there is no time to wast...)? Thank you

You practice lifting them higher and then launching them into the key VERY quickly in order to stimulate the reflexes. Your reflexes must learn how to activate the finger with incredible energy even when there is not much external movement. But to achieve it, practice it at a slower tempo WITH the external movement, big time, really vigorous! Wake your muscles up! AFF
