Clearing a 5×5 table in under about 30 seconds is a strong result, and regular practice brings that down. Times vary a lot between people and runs, so the most useful comparison is against your own previous attempts.

Why keep my eyes in the centre?

The point of the drill is to find numbers using your peripheral vision rather than scanning around. Holding a soft, central gaze widens the area you take in at once, which is the same skill speed-reading tries to build.

Does it actually help reading speed?

It trains a wider visual span and steadier focus, which supports faster reading, though it is one exercise among many rather than a shortcut on its own. Used regularly alongside real reading practice, it can help.
