How do Velocity Zones work?
If your Lift Tracker App is connected to a TeamSync account, you will have the option for Velocity Zones after selecting an athlete.
This table shows the corresponding velocity for each zone and how the pre-populated load value was determined. The app screen will immediately turn green if the last rep was in the selected zone. If the last rep was outside the selected zone, the app screen will turn red.
Zone | Velocity Range | Load Value |
|---|---|---|
Load Only | N/A | N/A |
Absolute Strength | 0.00-0.50 m/s | 90% of 1RM |
Accelerative Strength | 0.50-0.75 m/s | 72.5% of 1RM |
Strength Speed | 0.75-1.00 m/s | 55% of 1RM |
Speed Strength | 1.00-1.30 m/s | 35% of 1RM |
Starting Strength | 1.30 m/s + | 10% of 1RM |
