Listen Later

Are you interested in learning about velocity-based training (VBT)?

Have you heard of it before, but maybe not quite sure what you can do with it?

Or are you someone that’s currently using it and looking to take your skills to the next level?

If so, this episode with Travis Mash has you covered!

Here we cover tons of reasons why you might consider adding VBT training into your program, as well as best-practices to make sure you’re getting the most out of it.

Let’s do this!

 

Quotable Quotes:

The biggest thing with VBT is that immediate feedback encourages athletes to push throughout the entire range of motion

 

Day 1 is all about creating load-velocity profiles, and we’d do that for all the big lifts like squatting, bench, etc.

 

If your goal is hypertrophy, use a 25% drop off so you get the gains without the negative consequences

 

This Week on the Physical Prep Podcast:
  • What velocity-based training (VBT) is, in a nutshell.
  • How VBT provides immediate and objective feedback to enhance effort and intent.
  • The numerous ways you can use VBT to test, train and monitor your athletes.
  • How velocity bands and “training zones” can differ between novice athletes and seasoned lifters.
  • Velocity drop-offs: What are they? And how can they help you build hypertrophy?
  • When Travis starts to utilize VBT with his athletes, and how he gets them started on Day 1.
  • How Travis went about re-building the culture of his new gym when he took over as a coach.
  • Finally, how to use VBT to improve buy-in and create better relationships with your athletes!
