How to record your velocity
Frequently Asked Questions
The Metric algorithm is a patented video analysis method of accurately measuring barbell movement from video. Record your lifts with the app, and Metric will track the barbell in real-time to precisely calculate the change in position for every rep. No additional equipment is needed, but your iPhone or iPad should be positioned side-on and in a stable position.
Metric has been tested against traditional VBT devices and accelerometers, and matches or exceeds their performance in normal conditions. Metric was compared against full 3D-motion tracking systems during development to create our baseline algorithm. Read the validation findings here.
Metric does not require any additional hardware other than your iPhone or iPad to work. All you need is an iPhone X or newer running on iOS 16 or later, or a iPad newer than 2021 running on iPadOS 16 or later.
To ensure your recordings are accurate it helps to have a tripod or stable object to position your phone against – leaning your device against a kettlebell, water bottle or similar works great!
Metric is completely free to use for recording unlimited training set videos.
