Velocity-based resistance training with matched training volume leads to similar effects in maximal and explosive strength.
Both training methods can be effectively used interchangeably for strength training.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
In conclusion, performing velocity-based resistance training with low and HVL with equal training volume resulted in similar effects in maximal and explosive strength in addition to muscular adaptations.
