“…average velocity from the start of the concentric phase until the bar reaches the maximum height; MV) and maximum velocity (i.e. the maximum instantaneous velocity value recorded during the concentric phase; Vmax) variables collected against a variety of loads during different BP variants (García‐Ramos, Haff, Jiménez‐Reyes, & Pérez‐Castilla, 2018; García‐Ramos, Haff, Padial, & Feriche, 2018; Yáñez‐García et al, 2018). Studies that have tested movement velocity during the BP exercise have mainly used a standardised grip width slightly greater than shoulder‐width apart (Pallarés, Sánchez‐Medina, Pérez, De La Cruz‐Sánchez, & Mora‐Rodriguez, 2014; Sánchez‐Medina, González‐Badillo, Pérez, & Pallarés, 2014) or a self‐selected grip width (García‐Ramos, Haff, Jiménez‐Reyes, et al, 2018; García‐Ramos, Haff, Padial, et al, 2018; García‐Ramos, Pestaña‐Melero, Pérez‐Castilla, Rojas, & Haff, 2018; García‐Ramos, Suzovic, & Pérez‐Castilla, 2019; Orange et al, 2019).…”
