Brett, Great advice as usual. Your course valued really helped me out this past year. Thanks for putting out all these great resources. All the best, Joe Dores
I don't know how I got this video come up on my recommendations as I have no interest in becoming a S&C coach but I must say it's a great video. For anyone scrolling the comments to see if it's worth watching, great advice on here that translates to a lot of other professions. So does your advice about books. As an avid book reader for certain self-improvement topics the knowing oneself better and being able to become more aware of my weak links is something I resonate with.
Disciplined Healing thank you so much for your feedback and for the detail. My background is on strength and conditioning, but as you pointed out these issues are not unique to that field, and our work is for anyone who is interested in making a larger impact in what they do! Thanks again, and for more check out artofcoaching.com
I’m wrapping up my last year of PTA school. Throughout my therapy education I’ve been most interested in treatment progressions, taking a patient from debilitated to healthy and beyond, and scaling my treatments upward for those healthy individuals to bring them into fitness. Unfortunately health insurance companies don’t cover that kind of thing, so I thought that might mean I’d want to become a personal trainer or strength coach as a side gig; to give my patients a fitness option. Got any tips? Know anyone doing this kind of workflow? Thanks Brett 💪🏻

Hey! Great video. I have recently purchased the NCSF CSC. How does that stack up against the CSCS? Thanks! BTW great advice for a young guy like me starting out in this field. Thanks
Thanks a lot. Just I want to start I don't leve in USA but I want to learn but I don't know where ?? Can you tell me about any programs make me begin my journey . Sorry about my English
Hi coach , I’m a soccer coach trying to go to the next level in terms of science of the sport. Can you recommend me a school where I can get certified as Strength and conditioning trainer. Thx!
Hey! Thanks for reaching out. This will depend on the space you’re looking to get into specifically (college S&C, high-school, etc). Do you have a degree? Looking to pursue one? Or just get a cert? Check out these resources as they can be a huge help brettbartholomew.net/careerquestions/
I think it's insane to even fathom that I need to obtain a double masters degree and put myself in debt to obtain a career that won't even pay the salary I would need to pay back my college debt. If todays world is about making 2 min videos to showcase how great my personality is to separate myself from the pack of strength professionals thats really sad and something that we should learn early on in our careers in school. It's not about separating yourself from the pack as much as it is about making the criteria harder in the beginning to weed out the bad seeds to not make this field so flooded and to not put young strength coaches in debt to begin with. I got a friend who was on the Chinese Olympic team for 4 years in China away from his family and friends as a strength coach and when he came back pro athletic performance gyms asked him to obtain a masters degree to even get a entry job position. That to me is ridiculous and insulting and a waste of time. I'd rather suffer having to take a harder exam or having the criteria in the beginning stages of my career harder than having to jump through hoops like a circus clown because the field is so saturated to begin with. Thats the real problem. That would literally fix everything and make it worth your wild. We ain't getting paid a doctors salary so why would we put ourselves in debt like one?
Why would you need a masters degree to become stength coach? It's not THAT complicated😂 Like he said, you should essentially stick to the basics and do those really well.
@@XXLRebel you need to learn the art of marketing aka bs in the social media and lots of bum licking. Social media presence is all about personalities and character.
Any tips on how to live if you aren’t in the top 5% of being excellent and driven in any field? I practice classical piano for 5 hours a day, but because I’m kind of rubbish in an extrinsic way (I got great at the piano through disillusionment and avoidance of the banality of life but the wonder of music made life worth living) I’ve found myself working as a cleaner to make ends meet.. often there doesn’t seem like a bridge between pursuing excellence and (work) reality where the bridge resonates deep integrity. For me the link is completely invisible. This video kind of highlights for me a serious problem about myself, and the dilemma for lots of wonderful people living in what can seem like an alien, hostile, and possibly seemingly pointless external reality.I would kill myself if I didn’t love being alive so much.
Getting unstuck is a real problem for many of us. And before I say anything else- if you are truly thinking about harming yourself you need to get help immediately! Nothing matters more than your own emotional and mental health my friend. The world needs what you have to offer my friend

The world needs what you have to offer my friend
If I took strength and conditioning course without cpt course can I coach and deal with clients or I have to take cpt as a foundation
You can take either one or the other. You shouldn't need to take both
What if you don’t have the traditional background. Like I didn’t major in kinesiology or exercise science. Any path to becoming a strength coach?
as long as you have a bachelors in some field you can get certified. obviously it would help if it was an exercise related degree but not mandatory.
David Park thank you.
Loyd Mcclary Most organizations require a science based degree as stated below. You can find more about requirements by researching the NSCA.
