Don't be discouraged, interview people, find an internship, find a paid internship or a job. Persevere, slow progress towards your goals is better than giving up & no progress

    THIS IS GENIUS! So are many of the comments from those of us who've obviously "been in the trenches". There are wonderful elements to this profession, but there are massive negatives too. I miss it often because of the opportunity to help athletes succeed in athletics and life, but also the relationships that I was able to create with my athletes and coaches I worked with...until I remember the hours and crap pay. LOL Ugh...you don't need "huge ass lats" to be a great coach.

    His message seems to be less theoretical knowledge and more practical experience. I'm not in this profession, but I think that's really short sighted. It's much easier to gain practice than knowledge, especially when you understand the theory.

    Lets be real.. to be a strength coach at a college... especially a well known college will happen only through connections and referrals.. not your credentials. You can be an “intern” for years and you wont have a shot at the main job. “Job postings” are all formalities.. they wont look at 99% of the resumes.. sucks but its the truth

    ⁠@@Angelobambino23yes obviously you need education or else you can’t obtain a cscc + need post grad degree. Tons of graduates or students looking to intern are fighting for very limited spots to work for free just to be able to put that on your resume. Just as this coach mentions, they’re not looking for people with a big background. The school can’t or won’t hire additional coaches unless the current ones leave or get fired. Many schools have a strength coach who will oversee multiple programs and for some schools, all programs depending on their budget. Listen to what these coaches say when referring to a “traditional” route and how he says we choose guys who worked with so and so through connections which proves my point. I went through it myself and lived this “nomadic” lifestyle these coaches also stated. I say these things because I was given the first hand experience explanation of how they need to formally do postings but already have their choices made. They need to do “interviews” to show they have everyone a “fair” shot. It is what it is. I got all the certs and post grad degree but now I run a company that is completely unrelated to my studies.

However high school level I've spoke to, shadowed, etc with coaches who didn't have a master's and some of them were at pretty large schools. Im only about 6 months out of being graduated with my undergrad, was discouraged and kind of gave up even pursuing S&C, was convinced to atleast get my CSCS and give it a go.

    You can get a job without a masters if you have a connection with that school/ organisation/ team, it's very usual in this industry to know the right people and that way be asked if you want the job rather than having to go out and apply for it yourself. If you saw a job posting on a website and applied for that job, the chances of them looking further at your resume now without a masters degree would be slim. Unfortunately that's just the way it is these days.
