This episode reviews velocity-based training, which is a very useful tool when in the gym.  There are also a lot of fantastic products out there at the moment from wearables, string transducers, through to 3D camera technology that can monitor strength training power and velocity outputs.
 
This also brings us to a sponsorship from EliteForm, who have utilised an integrated online Strength Planner in conjunction with 3D camera technology to monitor barbell power/velocity.  Please give them a visit at https://eliteform.com/
  
Here is a short video about the EliteForm system, which explains it best: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F8wvVV876ak
 
 
This podcast is a great starting point for anyone interested in knowing about velocity-based training.  Please enjoy

Researched Applications of Velocity Based Strength Training
Mladen Jovanović & Dr Eamonn P. Flanagan
 
Strength training is a critical exercise stimulus for inducing changes in muscular strength, size and power.  Recently, linear position transducers have gained in popularity as a means to monitor velocity in strength training exercises. The measurement error of such devices has been shown to be low and both relative and absolute reliability have been shown to be acceptable.
 
The purpose of this article is to provide the overview and benefits of monitoring movement velocity in strength training exercises, along with providing the basis for novel “velocity-based” strength training prescription.
We have covered the following practical applications: Guidelines to develop a velocity/load profile for athletes; Using the velocity load/profile to predict and monitor changes to maximal strength; Using velocity monitoring to control fatigue effects of strength training; Using velocity monitoring as an immediate performance feedback to promote the highest level of effort in specific training exercises and stronger adaptive stimuli.
 
Linear position transducers are reliable and valid tools to help strength and conditioning practitioners monitor and optimize their strength training programs.
