"Velocity Based Training" is any training that involves measuring velocity.
🏋🏽♂️ It can be Strength, Hypertrophy, Power, etc.
It's common to use VBT for "Power" or "Dynamic Effort" training because that type of training requires high intent and concentric speed.
🔑 The only way that it will be effective though is if Intent is maximized.
Don't aim for a specific "Velocity Zone"
📊 Rather, focus on moving the bar as fast as possible and adjust velocity loss or load based on the desired adaptation.
