The minimum velocity threshold (MVT) is the slowest velocity at which a repetition can be completed for a given exercise. This value is therefore synonymous with the 1 repetition maximum, a common test and indication of an athletes strength levels and progress in the gym. The MVT has been shown to be consistent for a number of common strength training exercises, although the homogeneity of the research cohorts, variations in lifting technique and differences in velocity values given by different tracking technologies used across exercises may suggest a wider level of individual variation in the minimum velocity values than is currently presented.
