"I like the idea behind this but I do have to ask if the athlete is doing any work before the higher volume work? Or do they just begin with the high volume work and then move to the singles? I am just trying to follow if you would have athletes…"

in terms of preparation & the exam, its probably not as intense as the CSCS - although i did it as continuing education because i already have my personal training certification through NASM. i recommend them so highly because A) anywhere you look, NASM and the NSCA are the two highest certifications you can have & people place a lot of value on them and B) i just feel like i have a great handle on program design variables both for general populations, special populations & athletes. it would probably be worth your while to look into it because they place a lot of emphasis on dynamic functional training, stabilization & posture - things that are overlooked and need special emphasis. i've had a lot of success with it in the short time i've had it, so hopefully you find the same :)

Regarding your equipment, what kind of budget do you have to work with?
