12 Week VBT Program

Stop Training By Feel. Start Training By Velocity.

Most athletes leave performance on the table because they're either going too heavy too often, or not heavy enough when it counts. Percentages don't account for your bad sleep, your stress load, or the fact that you had a competition last weekend.

Velocity does.

The 12-Week VBT Program from Jochum Strength uses your own bar speed — your Minimum Velocity Threshold — to auto-calculate every working zone across the entire program. Enter two numbers. Watch the whole spreadsheet populate. Train exactly where you need to be, every single session.

What's Inside

📖 The Ebook Guide (PDF) Everything you need to run the program the right way — what VBT is, how to find your MVT, how the Snakes & Ladders loading scheme works, stop rules, device recommendations, and a full breakdown of every phase. No fluff, no filler. Just the stuff that actually matters.

📊 The Auto-Calculating Spreadsheet (Excel) Enter your Snatch and Clean MVT once. Every velocity zone across all 12 weeks auto-populates instantly. No math. No guessing. Just show up and lift.

🎥 Video Walkthrough Austin walks you through the full program before you start — how it works, what to expect, and how to get the most out of every week.

How the Program is Built

• 5 training days per week — Olympic lift focus with dedicated speed days
• 5 progressive phases (2 weeks each) + Deload + Max Out Week
• Snakes & Ladders singles scheme — add weight while you're in zone, drop when you're not. Simple. Brutally effective.
• VBT stop rules on every block — never grind a set that isn't producing. Your CNS will thank you.
• Week 12: PR Week — the whole program builds to this. Go get it.

Who This Is For

This program was built for competitive athletes who train the Olympic lifts — football players, track athletes, Olympic weightlifters, and multi-sport athletes who want to move fast, lift heavy, and peak at the right time.

If you're serious about your performance and tired of programming that doesn't adapt to you, this is it.

Who This Is NOT For

This is not a beginner program. You should have a foundation in the Snatch and Clean before running this. You'll also need access to a VBT device (a Flex or OVR unit works great — more detail inside the ebook).

The Investment

$75 — includes the PDF guide, the Excel spreadsheet, and the video walkthrough.

One program. Built around your velocity. Designed to peak you.
