how do you train to block low on reflex ?

i do it by recognising attack strings and noticing the animation for a low i just ate. when i see the char do something like that animation i reflex block low. some lows are just so slow its obvious tho. but i agree there is some anticipation involved
 
I typically train my eye to focus on a certain part of an opponents body and learn to react to 'bones' of the models going certain ways. You can react to stuff crazy early if you master this. The downside is custom characters really throw you off, and you're back to the 'normal method'.
