Using Velocity measures to improve resistance training programming and coaching

Dan Baker's presentation from the 2017 UKSCA conference details methods of measuring velocity during resistance training, the applicability of either Peak or Average/Mean velocity to different categories of exercise and normative velocity scores for different % 1RM in key strength and power training exercises. The relationship between different set/rep/effort combinations and velocity loss across a set with regards to markers of fatigue and subsequent recovery will be also be presented. From this normative velocity and a knowledge of velocity/fatigue data, many applied examples of how using velocity measures can improve programming or coaching will be detailed.
