These include barbell sports such as powerlifting [3] and Olympic weightlifting and Crossfit, as well as rock climbing [4].Velocity based training is widely adopted across professional sporting clubs, [5] with the data supporting many periodisation decisions for coaches in the weight room and on the field.

Here, the total score may be accepted even though some of the results had a tail wind of more than 2.0 m/s.
