Speed drills

Hello, i just finished participating in a fencing tournament and realized that my greatest disadvantage is my lack of blade movement speed. Does anyone have recommendations for drills to do in order to improve my speed? Thanks

No, take more lessons. Or do more partner drills.

Blade speed comes from practicing blade speed.

Good blade speed comes from practicing blade speed well. Make sure you are practicing correctly and often.

I have the same problem, but don't really care to correct it.
