The Velocity-Based Warm-Up Protocol: An IMU-Driven Activation System
A step-by-step velocity-based warm-up protocol using an 800Hz IMU. Covers neuromuscular activation, load adjustment, and main-set readiness assessment.
Why Warm-Up Velocity Predicts Daily Performance: An 800Hz IMU Data Analysis
How warm-up set barbell velocity predicts daily 1RM and power output, analyzed through 800Hz IMU data and the academic literature on readiness assessment.
The Velocity Target Warm-up System: An 800Hz IMU Protocol for Scientific Pre-Lift Preparation
Replace subjective RPE warm-ups with the IMU-measured Velocity Target system. Quantitatively guarantee neural readiness for working sets.
How to Warm Up Before Heavy Lifting: No Time Wasted

Foam Rolling Before vs After Workout: A Research-Based Analysis
We analyze 25 RCTs and PoinT GO IMU data to settle when foam rolling actually works for ROM, strength preservation, DOMS, and recovery.
Why Static Stretching Before Lifting Is Bad: Research Proves It
Behm's meta-analysis shows static stretching cuts strength by 5.5% and power by 1.9%. See VBT-measured barbell velocity drops and a dynamic warm-up alternative.
