Though in Blitz training your intuition is far more practical. It's definitely better than bullet for improvement. And, if you get to an endgame, you can practice trying to play it out with 30 seconds on the clock. Of course, another way to handle this is to play a Hyperbullet From Position in an endgame and then add 4:30 to your opponents clock. But just playing Blitz is more practical imo.

My best improvement happened when I played some correspondence game.

Just the mere exercise of thinking about a position for hours is extremely useful.

Correspondence has a lot of time :)

My parents tell me to not play bullet or ultrabullet because I might start losing in rapid or classic.

honestly bullet is probably one of the main things that helped me at chess in slower time control.
