THE GOLD STANDARD DEVICE FOR VELOCITY-BASED TRAINING: THE VITRUVE ENCODER
Train Smarter. Adapt Faster.
Velocity is the missing piece in strength training. It shows you what the bar speed is telling you, whether your athletes are ready to perform, fatigued, or at risk of breaking down. By tracking bar speed and velocity loss, you move beyond just counting weight and reps. You can individualize loads daily, push when athletes are primed, and cut sets before fatigue turns into injury.
Because strength isn’t just about weight. It’s about speed.
“We can track the athletes day to day preparedness and create a unique force velocity profile for each one of our athletes that helps us pinpoint and emphasis without any guesswork.”
“We are going to get to a point where we are going to be around 90% – 95% but we are not going to have to get you to a point of failure. We know exactly what is safe.”
“Now I have objective feedback at every single rep and what every athlete does. No matter what application of power, endurance or strength I can actually document our trend of strength and power”
“It’s a great device when you train a lot of athletes and you got to get in and go. So VBT is so critical because it allows me to know what zone I’m in.”
