What is velocity based training?
Velocity tracking, also called velocity based training (VBT) is the use of technology - such as a smartphone app, or hardware device - to measure the velocity and motion of your gym based exercises.
This feedback provides lifters and coaches with data to motivate their workouts, assess readiness and fatigue levels, adjust training sessions in real-time, track progress, and structure long-term programs.
There is no single best approach to using velocity in your training, instead approach velocity tracking as a range of tools that you can pick and choose to help make training better.

Velocity based training is actually really simple
Make your numbers go up. At it's core, it's that easy.
If you can lift the same weight for a higher velocity, or if you lift a heavier weight at the same velocity you are making progress. In both cases you are generating more force and more power against the barbell!
Velocity based training is a transformative technology - but you shouldn’t need a PhD to be able to take advantage of the benefits!

Testimonial

👋 Hi, I'm Jacob the VBTcoach!
As an S&C coach I was frustrating how unhelpful the education and content around using velocity in the gym was.
I created VBTcoach to make education and content around bar speed tracking and velocity based training principles more useful for coaches and lifters. This website is a collection of blogs, podcasts, video courses, and downloadable resources aimed at making tracking and programming with velocity tracking technology in the weight room easier and more impactful.
