Velocity Based Training (VBT) consists of monitoring the execution velocity<\/strong> of repetitions performed with maximum intent to prescribe and control strength training objectively. VBT allows you to adjust the daily load<\/strong> based on fatigue levels, motivate athletes through real-time feedback, and accurately track long-term progress. By measuring velocity, you can determine exactly what percentage of the one-rep max (%1RM)<\/strong> is being lifted without the need for reaching muscle failure during testing.<\/p>\n In this link<\/a>, you can ask questions to our custom NotebookLM, powered by high-quality sources, to learn more about VBT and how to apply it using Spleeft.<\/p>\n To supervise your athletes, you must first master the tools they will be using. Download the app and try measuring velocity yourself with your iPhone or Apple Watch. The app will guide you through the process. You can even test it from home; there\u2019s no need to go to the gym for your first trial.<\/p>\n Ask your athletes to download Spleeft and follow this path: Profile \u2192 Share with a coach<\/strong>. There, they should generate a link and send it to you via message or email. By clicking the link, you will accept the invitation, and their data will begin appearing in your profile. Remember that as a coach, you need an active Allenatore di Spleeft<\/strong> subscription to add athletes to your account.<\/p>\n Learn more about this step.<\/a><\/p>\n Once this step is complete, you will automatically receive your athletes’ data on your devices.<\/p>\n If your athletes run out of iCloud storage or use Android devices with manual encoders, there are alternatives for receiving their information. Athletes can export raw data<\/strong> from a specific day in their history and send you the file for a quick import into your app. Additionally, Spleeft supports the manual import of .xlsx and .csv files<\/strong>, as well as data from other velocity-measuring devices.<\/p>\n For an even more convenient workflow, ask your athletes to link their accounts under Settings \u2192 TrainingPeaks<\/strong>. Once linked, session data will be uploaded automatically. You will be able to see the execution velocity in the “Velocity\/KPH” channel and the load in the “Cadence\/RPM” channel. An AI-generated summary will be included in the comments so you can quickly decide if a deeper analysis is needed.<\/p>\n Learn more.<\/a><\/p>\n Accuracy depends on proper measurement technique. Instruct your athletes to pause briefly between reps<\/strong> (less than a second is usually enough) to allow the algorithm to recalibrate the signal. They should wait for the on-screen indicator to turn green<\/strong> (or for the Apple Watch to vibrate in “Boost” mode) before starting the next rep. It is fundamental that they perform the concentric phase with maximum voluntary intent<\/strong> for the data to be valid for load adjustments.<\/p>\n Spleeft is a validated<\/a> tool, but you must know how to use it correctly.<\/a><\/p>\n If they already work with other systems, teach your athletes to use the iOS “Action extension.”<\/strong> From their device’s app (such as Vitruve, ADR Encoder, or OVR<\/strong>), they should tap “Share” and select “Sync VBT data with Spleeft.”<\/strong> Spleeft is directly compatible with devices like OVR Velocity and OVR Jump<\/strong>, centralizing all VBT and jump data in one place. If they use a non-native device, Spleeft uses an AI model<\/strong> to process and save the data in its format.<\/p>\n1. Download Spleeft and try it yourself first<\/h3>\n
