This one is all about smarts and reading your opponent, IMHO.
Its not about how fast you move your body its a out anticipation and which direction you're going.
There is no substitute for knowing your limitations and then planning for the scenario.
I was never quick so I planned for the scenario when players were running at me and worked out how to get them onto none preferred side or into trouble.
One more reason to dislike the stand rule is that it penalises smarts in favour of the quicker reaction.
