There is a distinction to be made that is easily overlooked: training versus performing. When the Special Forces are performing, obviously they are not going at a slow pace. It takes full speed movements to breach a door, clear a room, secure hostiles, and remove friendlies. None of this goes slow, as the situation does not allow slow.
However, the training does go from a slow speed to performance speed. Another related military mantra is “crawl, walk, run.” Start by focusing on individual steps (slow: this is often accomplished by way of lecture or simulated sandbox training), move to rehearsing at half-speed “walking,” to internalize the movements and build muscle memory, then “run”
