This might seem counterintuitive, but the best study guides or the shortest study guides. What I mean is that the best study guides will point out exactly what you need to study in order to pass the exam. My study guide on the other hand basically goes over everything but does not pinpoint the most important parts to study.
The old-school way of using flashcards is done. Physically writing down the information on hundreds of flashcards is tedious and time-wasting. In addition to this, the flashcards you study after you create them are not nearly as effective as they could be.
What you need to use are spaced repetition flashcards. This is the flashcards system I have used to learn Spanish as well as study for all of my personal training certifications.
It has really worked fantastic for me as well as for all of my students that have tried it. Spaced repetition flashcards use an algorithm to learn which flashcards you already know, and which flashcards you have trouble with. The program will continuously show you your difficult cards until you know them well. The cards you already know well will show infrequently.
This saves you a ton of time and really drills the difficult concepts until you have mastered them. Using these can really work wonders for difficult-to-remember topics from the textbook.
The key to these is to make an incredibly weird and memorable mnemonic story in your head. Honestly the weirder the story is, the most memorable it will be. Good luck and get to studying! A cheat sheet is a good way to keep all of the information you struggle with or find yourself forgetting, all in one page together.

Can you please tell me that which part of book comes under the exam. Hey Karan, Thanks for reaching out to me. I have been working with trainer Academy for about a little over a year now. They have great study materials and all of my students that I send their way always have good feedback from the experience with them.
Hope this helps. The certified strength and conditioning specialist certification is definitely one of the hardest personal training certifications out there. I would definitely start here with the free study guide in practice test but if you want a full suite of study materials and a much better chance of passing the exam I suggest checking out the trainer Academy study materials.
Here is a link. Is CSCS the best option for someone looking to become a strength and conditioning coach? I would be working in a smaller privately owned gym and with athletes in specific.
Hey Tori, The certified strength and conditioning specialist certification is definitely seen as the gold standard in terms of strength and conditioning or working with athletes.
This is definitely what I would go for but the only thing is that they do require a four-year college degree before you can even sign up to take the exam.
It does not have to be a degree in a health-related field, just a four-year degree in any subject will do. Hey Tyler. What should I do? A four-year bachelors degree should be all that you need in order to be eligible to take the certified strength and conditioning specialist certification. That is pretty cool that you are wanting to train mixed martial artist fighters! That is a super dynamic sport that would be fun to train somebody in. Hello, I do believe that the certified strength and conditioning specialist certification can be done in Spanish.
You will definitely need to double check with the NSCA on this. In terms of having study materials for it on my website in Spanish, I only have study materials in English but that would be a cool option to be able to have both. Thanks a lot for the suggestion! No worries. Thanks for stopping by and leaving some kind words. I recently took the cscs exam but failed because of the nutrition section e. Hey Varun sorry to hear that you failed. It is a difficult exam to pass. I highly suggest some higher and study materials such as those from Trainer Academy in order for you to make sure that you pass the CSCS exam on the second try.
Thank you for very helpful information. Can you give me some information about the Exam Registration and Scheduling Tyler? This is true, you will need to find a testing center near you. You will have to check their website for this information.
You cannot take the final exam online, you will need to go into a testing facility. I wanted to thank you for this overview of the chapters which helped me to study along with the textbook. That is a fantastic step towards becoming an awesome strength and conditioning coach. Good luck with your career. Would you say that the practice questions included above are pretty much what the questions on the actual CSCS are going to be like?
I am finding that most of the practice questions online are of similar difficulty and easier to dissect, but the practice questions that I purchased directly through the CSCS website are waaayyyy harder. Any insight would be helpful. Thank you! Also, my sample practice test does not cover nearly as many total questions that you will see on the final CSCS exam.
That being said, I would definitely suggest heading over to trainer Academy as they have three full practice exams. Hey Tyler, I am very much interested in this fitness training domain. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Hey man, I actually wanted to ask you if you could make the guide into a pdf so that it would be easy for us to access it offline and even print it.
