Poliquin Strength Coach Training
I've worked as a personal trainer and strength coach, off and on over the last 15 years (off the last 4 years as I reside in an EXTREMELY economically depressed region).
I'm finally about ready to begin my pursuit of a career in athletic strength training, since I'll be free to head move my home base. With that said, what is the general consensus of a certification with Poliquin? I know that other organizations also offer this specialized type of training, however many of them require a college degree in a human performance related field if I'm not mistaken. Poliquin has also got a great track record as he's trained a LOT of olympic medalists...or is it all hype? Is he for real or simply a great self-promoter?
Really I'm not looking at NASM or ACSM or anyone else at this moment. At a later date I will look into some of the others-individually like I'm doing here-but for now I just want to see if there is any kind of consensus on Poliquin.
