Visitors to www.youcangofarther.com can sign up to receive information about CSCS and NSCA-CPT exam sites and dates, preparation materials and why they should be certified. Visitors also have the opportunity to play a competitive trivia game to test their knowledge of fitness information and the CSCS and NSCA-CPT credentials. To guide students and educators through the trivia game, the NSCA Certification Commission has created five motivators to choose from to provide them with direction and motivation as they answer fitness-related trivia questions. These motivators were created to be fun and interactive guides through the challenging and fast-paced trivia game. There are also some fun and exciting extras available to students and educators who sign up including downloadable screensavers of their favorite motivator, e-cards and e-mails challenging friends and colleagues to better their trivia game score.
