Velocity-Based Training: Prescribing and Assessing the Effects of Resistance Training

Velocity-based training (VBT) is a contemporary method of resistance training (RT) that has become popular among sport scientists and practitioners due to the proliferation of devices that allow accurate real-time monitoring of movement velocity during RT exercises. The main input of VBT is the lifting velocity of repetitions performed with maximal intent (i.e., executed as fast as possible). Barbell's velocity monitoring is known to have important applications for (I) enhancing training qu...
