Velocity Based Training

Conventionally, resistance training programs are designed by prescribing relative intensities as a percentage of the individual’s one repetition maximum for a predetermined number of sets and repetitions. However, this traditional approach fails to account for daily fluctuations in the athlete’s strength capabilities

Velocity Based Training (VBT) is grounded on the principle that a direct linear correlation exists between the weight lifted and the maximum velocity achieved during the exercise

Monitoring the velocity during a set might help to inform athletes when to end a set or when to use other weights

Some studies show better effects when comparing following  VBT to e.g. training with a pre-determined number of repetitions per set (e.g. in selected performance paramters such as maximal strenght or Countermovement Jump Performance)

However: 1) Literature is still scarce 2) Termination of sets is just one out of many parameters relevant for strength training 3) Reliability of monitoring devices is sometimes limited
