These materials are also valuable additions to the professional libraries of strength and conditioning professionals, personal trainers, athletic trainers, physical therapists, educators, coaches, and sports medicine specialists. While comprehension of the information presented in the review materials should increase the likelihood of passing the CSCS or NSCA-CPT certification examinations, using the materials does not guarantee a successful performance. The questions on the CSCS and NSCA-CPT examinations are developed from numerous resources in addition to these materials.National Strength and Conditioning Association Staff is the author of 'Free Weight and Machine Exercise Techniques', published 2006 under ISBN 9780990044987 and ISBN 099004498X.
