It is well known that when implementing velocity-based training maximum intention must be applied in every repetition. In this sense, maximum force can be improved with any load when the maximum intention is achieved. However, not all loads create the same adaptations. Similarly, not every exercise in some circumstances allows the athlete to achieve the …

Linear Encoders: These devices measure the speed and distance of a …
The Power of Real-Time Feedback in Velocity-Based Training In the fast-paced world of sports, timely adjustments can be the difference between winning and losing. Real-time feedback is a cornerstone of Velocity-Based Training (VBT), providing immediate insights into an athlete’s performance. In this blog, we’ll explore the benefits of real-time feedback and how it can be …
In the world of Velocity-Based Training (VBT), understanding the Load-Velocity Curve is crucial. This curve provides insights into an athlete’s performance by illustrating the relationship between the speed of movement and the weight lifted. In this blog, we’ll delve into the Velocity-Load Curve, exploring how it can be used to assess and optimize training programs. …
Training volume, defined by the total number of sets and repetitions, is a critical component of any strength and conditioning program. However, merely accumulating volume isn’t enough. The quality of each rep and the overall effort put forth are equally important. In this blog, we’ll explore how Velocity-Based Training (VBT) can optimize training volume by …
Traditional strength training programs have long been based on static metrics like the one-repetition maximum (1RM). While these methods have their merits, they often fail to account for individual variability and day-to-day fluctuations in performance. In this blog, we’ll discuss the inherent flaws in traditional training plans and explore how Velocity-Based Training (VBT) provides a …
In the realm of sports science and strength and conditioning, mastering advanced techniques requires a solid understanding of the basics. Velocity-Based Training (VBT) is a cutting-edge approach that shifts focus from traditional metrics to the speed of movement, offering a fresh perspective on performance enhancement. This blog delves into the fundamental concepts and definitions that …
The Strength and Conditioning industry is evolving, and so are the methods we use to measure and improve performance. Traditional metrics like the one-repetition maximum (1RM) have long been the standard in strength training, but they come with limitations. Velocity-Based Training offers a fresh perspective by focusing on movement speed rather than just the amount …
