Starting Strength coach..

[ChessGuy]

Went to a gym I don't usually go to. One of the PTs had his flyer up with all of his qualifications.

I was impressed that he was ACSM and Stating Strength qualified....that is, until I saw the small writing which stated "in progress".

Is it possible to be a SS coach "in progress? lol

[Tom Campitelli]

I wonder what that means? We have no "in progress" nomenclature.

[Nick Delgadillo]

Are you in STL? What gym?

[zackpassman]

Why did you go to a gynecologist for a Starting Strength coach?

He sleeps with the Second Edition under his pillow.

Maybe he is learning the lifts as per SS style, followed he programme and is saving money to go and get the actual cert. iam being nice here of course, but really there is no other reason anyone would write it that way.

Since we don't train coaches, this would be the only logical assumption. But he's not a Starting Strength Coach until he passes the seminar, which is a very high hurdle indeed.
