Certified Strength Conditioning Specialist Comprehensive Questions Set #3

One of your football players, Tyrell, is performing the flat bench press. Tyrell is a 16 year old male, weighing 180 pounds at 70 inches tall. Tyrell says that his goal during the off-season is to increase his muscular power. Tyrell lowers the bar to his chest in a slow, controlled fashion and then lifts the bar to full extension as quickly as possible. His lifting cadence is approximately three seconds during the eccentric phase and about one second during the concentric phase. He pauses briefly at the end of the concentric phase of the lift, but there is no pause during the transition between the eccentric and concentric phases.

    Good job for making it through these comprehensive questions! Looks like you’re doing pretty well! Congrats! Comprehensive-type questions like these are designed to help you remember the basic Scientific Foundations material when you need to apply them in practice. The majority of the CSCS exam is application and analysis-based, so simple recall questions will be limited. Remember, this quiz displays just a few random questions from the question bank. Try each quiz multiple times so you can see all the different questions. There are also more practice questions available on my Facebook page.

    If there is something in the quiz you have a question about or disagree with, just post up in the comments section and I’ll see if I can help or if something needs to be changed.

    80% is not bad! Keep practicing and I’m sure you’ll be able to crush the actual CSCS exam. These questions are somewhat difficult because we know the CSCS exam is going to be difficult. Most people taking the exam already know a lot about strength training and conditioning, but they have some difficulty with the small details and scientific foundations information that the NSCA requires. Like strength training and conditioning itself, it’s better to work hard now so the actual exam isn’t as difficult. Besides, you don’t want to fail the exam and have to shell out another couple hundred dollars to retake it.

    Try to remember which areas you struggled on so you can review those topic areas later.
