5.0 out of 5 stars Essential for aspiring Personal Trainers
Reviewed in the United States on 11 December 2011

The NASM: CPT course at this present time is arguably the best overall personal trainer program out there.

I just received my book a few days ago, and I'm aspiring to be a personal trainer after years of lifting myself.
I must say I thought I knew a lot before, but my knowledge doesn't even scratch the surface of what is expected of you by the NASM team.
PHENOMENAL book split up into 4 major sections:

+Fundamentals of Human Movement science
+Assessments, Training Concepts, and Program Design
+Nutrition and Supplementation
+Client Interaction and Professional Development

It's a 623 page book (including appendix) and is truly great even for just expanding your knowledge of training alone.

I can't wait to get started, I'm hoping to hit it hard and get it done during my winter break and I'll make an update once I get there.

(Doesn't hurt to mention also that buying the book on amazon is your best bet if you're unsure like me about becoming a personal trainer. If you buy it from NASM they force bundle it with the exam right away which you have to take 180 days after purchase [or upon receiving it, one of the two]. Also the book came in excellent and crisp condition so no worries there!)

Overall: The potential for this book is excellent, can't wait to get started and I will update my progress most likely Mid-January.

Hope this helps!
