Book excerpt: From improving performance to reducing the effects of training fatigue, the benefits of velocity-based training (VBT) are well known. To many, however, VBT is perceived to be overly complex and confusing, rooted in abstract formulas, and too time consuming to implement. Velocity-Based Training dispels that myth by breaking down the science and by providing practical, straightforward guidance on how to incorporate VBT into your athletes' training programs. Author Nunzio Signore, one of the most in-demand strength and conditioning coaches in the northeastern United States, has worked with players from numerous MLB teams. In Velocity-Based Training, Signore will show you how to achieve greater levels of strength, speed, and power with pinpoint accuracy. You will find the following: Descriptions of the different types of VBT devices, enabling you to select the best option for your needs, Instructions on how to use VBT to assess athlete readiness and set specific training parameters for maximum results, Advice on how, and when, to make real-time changes to your daily programs based on how your athletes are feeling, Information on how to use VBT to ensure athletes are training at the appropriate intensity according to where they are in their yearly training plan, Expert guidance on how to use VBT daily with athletes of various ages and ability levels, Sample programming that includes exercises, intensities, and tempos for all four training periods, Velocity-Based Training decodes the jargon, explaining what it means to you, your athletes, and their training. You will learn about mean concentric velocity (MCV), mean propulsive velocity (MPV), peak concentric velocity (PCV), and more concepts that will help your program. Eliminate the guesswork and use hard data for the design and implementation of training programs. Velocity-Based Training is your guide to safely and efficiently building stronger and more powerful athletes. Book jacket.
