Customer Reviews

Awesome resource for any trainer!

I wasted a lot of money on other PT study materials and this was by far the best content AND the best value! You will not go wrong with this purchase! This is a comprehensive, hard cover, color photo and just an overall high quality book.

great book

This book is great, I am an Exercise Science major and I am getting ready for the ACSM personal training exam, this is a big help, all of the stuff I have learned over the last few years in nicely condensed in this book.

ACSM Resources for the Personal Trainer

This is a good overview of the basics involved with personal training. Gives a list of expected skills and knowledge required for getting certified as a personal trainer. I found it a very useful book.

excellent!

This book benefits a lot to the initial trainers who even have no idea of how to deal with the training. The book is both practical and praticable to the trainer's learning how to train others with his/her own training experience. Though there are not enough illustrations in the book, I still strongly recommend the book to beginning trainers.

Great Book

Great source of information for anyone in the health and fitness field. Also a very good tool to prepare you for the ACSM or even other personal trainer certifications. I have read the ACE personal trainer book and this one beats it hands down.
