    Hi,
    I'm a UK trainer looking to come to the US to train clients in the movie business (I already have a potential contract:-)

    does anyone have an opinion on which US training courses are best regarded for body conditioning?

    NASM performance enhancement specialist?
    NSCA certificate in strength conditioning specialist?
    Poliquin Level 1?

    Thanks!
    James
