      John,

      You must do the following:

      1.  Be committed to the field with both feet in.  I don't know a single strength coach that has not said that this is the only job they can see themselves doing.  If you are have a couple of choices or back up plans you won't make it.  No back up plans.  

      2.  You must have the academic pedigree - Degrees and Certs.

      3.  You must be believable.  If you weren't a former player than you must find something to is similar (MMA, Powerlifting, etc).  You must also take calculated positions.  For example if you want to work in the NFL you must work your way up or work at a major college.  You can't work at a High School and expect to jump straight to the NFL just because you have a degree and cert.  

      4.  Lastly, Network, Network, Network.  

       

      Hope that helps.

      John,
      I have been working as a student assistant strength & conditioning coach at Utah for just over 2 years now. I also just completed my first year as the strength & conditioning coach at Westminster College here in Salt Lake City. The head strength coach at Utah is Doug Elisaia. Good luck with everything.
