Velocity-Based Training (VBT) for Baseball: Optimizing Speed and Power

Baseball is a sport that relies heavily on speed and power, whether it’s throwing a fastball, swinging a bat, or sprinting to steal a base. Traditionally, strength training has been the cornerstone of building these physical traits. However, modern technology has introduced a game-changing tool: Velocity-Based Training (VBT). By measuring the speed of movement during exercises, VBT provides a more precise and individualized approach to training, allowing athletes to optimize their power and explosiveness.

HOW WE EVALUATE POWER WITH PROTEUS MOTION

HOW WE EVALUATE POWER WITH PROTEUS MOTION

Traditionally, power has been difficult to measure given that it is the product of other metrics (force and speed) and is also produced three-dimensionally. Proteus, however, allows us to evaluate an athlete’s power accurately, how much force and velocity contribute to it and visualize their power production in three dimensions.
