CPRS Testimonials
Pinnacle Training & Consulting Systems Post-Rehabilitation Specialist Certification was exactlywhat I was looking for in my continuing education. Having worked in outpatient physical therapy settings as an Athletic Trainer to performance gym settings as a Strength and Conditioning Specialist,
I found my niche was filling the gap between injury and optimal movement. CPRS could not have more helped me fill that gap anymore than it did. Chris has found a way to distinguish practitioners in our space as truly understanding the post-rehabilitation process. The courses were both practical and applicable to my everyday practice, something that I have found hard to come by in both BOC and NSCA CEU offerings. The testing combined our knowledge of anatomy and kinesiology with evaluation, progressions, and modifications that we see every single day. I am ecstatic I was able to round out 2020 with the CPRS course and a new certification that I am proud to utilize to market myself and further distinguish myself in the health and wellness space. Thank you Chris!

“ I wanted to take this opportunity to thanks, Chris, to introduce the CPRS Certification. My special interest from day one always has been in Rehabilitation which helps me and my client to overcome their pain and aches. Being a strength and conditioning coach I had to look into sports-specific injuries and this course was amazing it covers Almost everything about anatomy to the biomechanics of the human body, the science behind all movement, and so on. This course designed to help personal trainer and conditioning coach to fill up their Knowledge with sports specific injuries, It took me almost 2 months to complete 12 modules. I thoroughly enjoyed and all contents were provided in the manual really helpful. Highly recommended to all exercise professionals."
