What is Velocity Drop-Off?
Velocity drop-off refers to the percentage of decrement in the speed of each repetition that occurs over the course of a set.
Instead of prescribing a set number of repetitions, this style of programming involves terminating the set when the athlete's velocity falls below a certain percentage threshold of their first or best rep in the set.
Velocity drop-off helps coaches to manage;
Fatigue accumulation
Competition peaking/tapering
Hypertrophy signalling
Post-session recovery timelines
