VBT in sprinters: more strength and more sprint than traditional training
Velocity-based training (VBT) produces greater improvements in sprint, maximal strength, and change of direction than fixed percentage 1RM training in
VBT vs training by percentage of 1RM: what the science says
It is the most frequently asked question when someone discovers speed-based training: Is it worth it or does it give
MV, MPV or PV: which speed metric to use in VBT
When you start using a sports encoder, one of the first questions that appears is this: what speed metric should
