Hey, I'm doing my dissertation on FV profiling and I just want to say this video was hugely helpful in my preparation. Thank you for this.

These videos are amazing thank you for breaking this down.

Starting strength is interesting. If you are using it for squats it’s highly dependent on SSC. The better you utilize SSC the better starting strength.

How do you know your 1RM to get the % from while doing the profile? Also, I don't want them to actually perform 1RM during the proifle. Should 80-85% be enough?

To estimate a 1RM, you can either do a repetition max and convert, or you can work up to an 8 RPE 1RM while performing the profile, and then you can use velocity to predict a 1RM

Hi Travis, thanks for the video. After using GymAware and Flex for the last 8 years on pro rugby players and Uni students I've found that velocities can be very different from a person to another. For example I've seen 1RM Bench Press going from 0.22 to 0.04, and 1RM Squat from 0.43 to 0.13. Same for other %, and the more speed, the more differences between people. My question is where do your goal velocities come from ? Is it an average velocity for each % coming from your datas ? Thanks for your answer. Fred

First, it's always good to get the individual profiles because they will be completely different sometimes. The thing you have to ask yourself is: what kind of athlete does one need to be to succeed in the particular sport? If someone can grind a 1RM squat at .13, that's awesome for powerlifting not so much for sprinting, weightlifting, or something that requires a high RFD. The adaptations necessary for a squat that slow are things like greater pennation angle of muscle fibers, greater lateral force transmission, a shift in all fiber type toward slower twitch in order to continue firing for a longer period, etc. Whereas a 1RM at 0.4m/s is going to require better SSC and elasticity, greater rate coding, etc. For Rugby, it depends on the position. For a position that requires high speed, I would make decisions that stimulate high rates of force development. Does that help?

Thanks for your answer @TravisMash. Do you recommand to use an average / median for each position, at each %, and use the +/- 7% to establish a more accurate goal velocity depending on players position ?
Coach! Are the Goal Velocities Peak or Average velocities? Thanks!

Average velocities are used to monitor unless you're talking.about the Olympic lifts and then I go with Peak Velocity.

Additionally, I think all the velocity ranges are exercise-dependent, aren't they?
@TravisMash Жыл бұрын
Absolutely. For example a deadlift isn't going to be as fast as a squat due to: 1. no stretch reflex and 2. less range of motion to create velocity aka impulse=force x time.

What velocity variables should i use when creating the f-vp. Mean velocity or peak velocity?
@TravisMash4 ай бұрын
Normally mean velocity. If you want to perform a profile on the Olympic lifts, you might consider peak.
