Our vision for athlete monitoring and analytics is about the delivery of actionable and timely information.

Accumulating endless rows of hard to action data will seem preposterously archaic!

[Sportsmith @SportsmithHQ]

"We need to stay away from information that’s either esoteric academic, that could be hard to understand or hard to act on, or information that can lead people into practices that may not work or may not properly target what they really want to change in action.”

Combining the subjective with the objective. The ability to integrate velocity with the subjective is the future for #VBT

Share with your online coach, reflect on what went well/poorly and adjust. Plenty more coming to expand this feature for @MetricVBT

A new velocity zones system for #velocitybasedtraining

- Customise to the exercise & individual
- 3 zones; speed, power, strength
- Takes into account multiple variables; % of 1RM, max power, LV profile.

Key: Different qualities require more than just adjusted bar speeds

[Jacob Tober | VBTcoach @VBTcoach]

You gotta pick the exercise (and contraction type) before you worry about the moment velocity

Velocity will almost always be a consequence, not a driver of the programming we do #velocitybasedtraining #speedstrength

Brilliantly simple as ever from our Head of Sports Science as usual!
Hit him up for a copy of the logbook 📒

[Jacob Tober | VBTcoach @VBTcoach]

Current settings for my VBT logbook:
- Col A-C: Basic details filters for readiness
- Col D: Best rep velocity, this is my favourite measure of fatigue status
- Col E-F: 30/90-day average for exercise + load

Want a copy? comment 💪 & I'll DM you!

New blog:
Why we started @MetricVBT, how we came up with the idea and why we think #velocitybasedtraining can be done better. Let me know your thoughts!

Agreed @the_ASCA but I also think everyone can see benefits from training with intent and gaining objective feedback! #velocitybasedtraining

I decided to take baby steps toward #buildinpublic by publishing a changelog for @MetricVBT

Unexpected upside: writing them is fun + I have a greater appreciation for what we have achieved so far!

Velocity based training can seem like a dark art! Cut through the complexity and master the basics.

We think VBT is held back by legacy tech. That's why we are building Metric. A tool that puts velocity based training in your pocket!
