How do you incorporate/interpret velocity data for a workout?

Asked by: Pete Knudsen

How do you implement velocity based training?

The easiest way to determine velocity stops for an athlete is to have them perform a reps-to-failure protocol in the specific exercise that you plan to program. Use anything from 60-75% of 1RM and have them perform a set to failure with the given load and monitor velocity for each rep.

How does velocity based training work?

Velocity Based Training works when an athlete is coached to lift concentrically as fast as possible for the weight on the bar (without sacrificing form). This is an expression of intent, and whether they are lifting at 90% or 50% of 1RM, the lifter needs to ‘move the bar fast’.

What is Velocity Fitness?

Velocity based training is simply a method of training which uses a piece of technology to track the movement speed of the exercise.

Is velocity based training effective?

Authors concluded that resistance training and velocity monitoring can be effective in enhancing sport specific performance together with endurance and power training in elite athletes.

Why is velocity important in sports?

The ability to calculate velocity is a very useful tool for coaches to have as it will allow them to have a deeper analysis of a performance and improve it.

What is high velocity training?

High velocity exercise results in specific high velocity adaptations and should be employed when attempting to increase high speed movements. Sports that require athletes to sprint faster or jump higher may benefit from assisted training that mimics sport specific movement speeds.

How do you determine velocity?

Velocity (v) is a vector quantity that measures displacement (or change in position, Δs) over the change in time (Δt), represented by the equation v = Δs/Δt. Speed (or rate, r) is a scalar quantity that measures the distance traveled (d) over the change in time (Δt), represented by the equation r = d/Δt.

What is a Tendo unit?

It’s the Tendo velocity measuring device. It measures the speed of a lift in meters per second or the actual wattage produced by an athlete. For sprinting you can determine the quickness of the athlete.

What is VBT in strength training?

Velocity-based training (VBT) is a con- temporary method of resistance training that enables accurate and objective prescription of resistance training inten- sities and volumes.

What is the meaning of velocity in science?

Velocity defines the direction of the movement of the body or the object. Speed is primarily a scalar quantity. Velocity is essentially a vector quantity. It is the rate of change of distance. It is the rate of change of displacement.

What is accelerative strength?

Accelerative Strength is the zone that most coaches choose to spend the most time in for getting strong. The idea is pushing a heavy weight as fast as possible. This normally occurs around 80%, which is where Prilepin told us is the most sustainable percentage to gain strength.

What is the difference between strength speed and speed strength?

At its base, strength-speed means strength in conditions of speed. Speed-strength, on the other hand, means speed in conditions of strength (Ajan, 1988; Roman, 1986). What this essentially means is that strength-speed means that you move a heavy(er) weight as fast as you can.

What is speed and endurance?

Speed-endurance is the ability to prolong the amount of time where a near maximal speed can be maintained. During activity such as this, accumulation of blood lactate disturbs the excitation-contraction coupling and cross-bridge formation.
