How did you train your hand reading skills? It is just to overwhelming for me to picture the preflop range and then how it evolves during a hand. As a result, I rarely range my opponents beyond some lazy "he seems weak".
Do you have suggestions what is the best to start training hand reading skills?

Keep doing what you say is "overwhelming" until it isn't

You develop a game strategy, a technique. During the years, you observe how well your opponents follow the correct technique at different sites, limits, formats.
You can play the pool tendencies, and you can be specific with specific opponents.
You can also observe the board and try to figure what he might have based on how he has been playing the hand so far.
