Number 27. ISSA Specialist in Sports Conditioning Certification

So, after procrastinating on the exam for about 2 years I finally ran out of extensions and ended up doing the 12 week course plus exam in about 4 or 5 weeks. I still need to re-certify my CPR before I get my actual papers, and I should be able to do that pretty soon. Summer is over and work is leveled out so I'll be able to catch up on a lot more stuff now. Including this here Blog.

So yeah, the exam was 57 pages of written exams including full year programming for athletes, 6 case studies, 100 multiple choice  and 100 T/F questions plus I had to make and edit a a DVD of me training an athlete. I had to outline the program, why I was picking each exercise and then demonstrate to the athlete. After they'd do it and I'd correct form and provide feedback. It was actually pretty fun, but the time constraints made it a bit frustrating. My own fault for putting it off for so long.
