[@Khan-SportsTraining]

Amazing 👏🏼 The way you explained it's great 👍

[@hiteshsharma4762]

Good job matt

[@TheMovementSystem]

Thank you!

[@chipsusmusic]

Hey man , from PT to PT, love your content. I was wondering what kind of camera you use and audio to produce your videos

[@TheMovementSystem]

Thank you! I have all my KZbin stuff linked on my Amazon store: www.amazon.com/shop/themovementsystem/list/2S1J6BAUJMORD?ref_=aip_sf_list_spv_ofs_mixed_m

[@zacharylowery4866]

Weird question, but what if the textbook gets updated and you’re half a month out from sitting for the exam? By the way thank you so much for all the information you’ve provided. You’ve really helped me on my CSCS study journey!

[@TheMovementSystem]

I wouldn't worry about that too much. Even with the updates 90%+ of the book will remain the same. And it's not like the exam will suddenly change when the book is updated. The exam is consistently slowly updated.

[@wanwall151]

Hi. Does the college degree has to be related to Exercise or Science? I'm a graduate in Bachelor's in Engineering from Singapore

[@mohsinhelal3851]

Do we have to renew our certification at time to time.

[@alexvanetten4364]

I have a copy of the third edition of the ESTC textbook, can I study off it and pass the exam

[@hugtango]

with a NSCA CSCS certification can we compet with any NCCA accredited certification ?

[@kadenhersel7810]

Hi Matt, does the 70% passing requirement apply to the total questions of each section (70% in applied, 70% in scientific foundations)? Or does it apply to 70% of each sub category (needing 70% in exercise science, 70% in sport psych, 70% in nutrition, etc)?

[@TheMovementSystem]

70% on scientific foundations and 70% on practical applied

[@jillcastor5048]

What chapters from the 4th edition text are covered in the Practical Applied section of the exam? I have already passed the Scientific Foundations portion and just need to study for the Practical Applied section. Just trying to use my time wisely and not go over anything I don't need to! Thanks!

[@TheMovementSystem]

12-24

[@Lagann11]

Does it matter what year I graduated as long as I can show official transcripts of having a degree? my b.s. in exercise science is from about 8 years ago.

[@TheMovementSystem]

You're good. It doesn't matter how long ago you graduated

[@GoGoober]

Hey brother, I've been a trainer for 6 years and now a student physical therapist. Thinking about getting my CSCS during the 3 week holiday break, do you think that's a reasonable anount of time to get it? Thanks for the vid💪

[@TheMovementSystem]

That's what I did actually. If you put in a good bit of studying and you're efficient you can probably do it. You should fly through the exercise science part and spend more time on topics like program design.

[@GoGoober]

@@TheMovementSystem Sweeet!! Sounds good brotha, will be joining the FB group. Thanks

[@geniusloveslucy]

What are the differences between 5th and 4th editions? thank you~

[@TheMovementSystem]

The 4th edition is the most current edition

[@alighahremanloo2135]

Are the CPT study materials the same as CSCS ?

[@TheMovementSystem]

Nope. Completely different

[@mayurpurbi399]

I'm currently running my gym and i do have diploma in Personal Training. Can I use my study material of Diploma course for the preparation of CSCS Exam ?

[@TheMovementSystem]

It’s probably very different information. I would get the essentials of strength training and conditioning book and focus on the CSCS specific information

[@teofitness1957]

Should we buy the textbook or it is provided after we sign up for the exam?

[@TheMovementSystem]

You have to buy the textbook

[@user-qs4pt5nj6e]

Thanks for the video. but 70 bucks for a test exam? lol not doing that

[@TheMovementSystem]

It has saved a lot of people $350+ in exam retake fees.
