ACSM's Guidelines for Exercise Testing and Prescription (American College of Sports Medicine)

This little book is extremely full of information for personal trainers, physical therapist or college fitness student. So worth the money although I did find a used copy. 😊

Learn about different training methods and a variety of exercises that engage different muscle groups, including how to evaluate clients and create balanced exercise routines for them based on their overall health and specific needs.

The book is easy to read and understand.

Great book, a little smaller than the last edition. As with any small paperback textbook, it's hard to open without bending the cover, and it never stays open anyway. I brought my copy to my local Kinko's to have it cut and spiral bound and covered for about $6. It's way easier to leaf through and set down without losing the page. Definitely recommended.

Edit: I contacted amazon and explained what happened and how I wasn't happy and they are giving me a full refund. Amazon consumer service is amazing and I am so glad that they are able to do this. Star increase because of them.I thought that this book was a spiral version but I learned that it wasn't. I ended up getting it cut and made into a spiral book and now I can't even see all the words. Not happy at all and I wish I could return the book for a refund or to get the version that I truly wanted but it is probably too late now.

Packs so much information about exercise guidelines and much more! This is an essential tool for any personal trainer or yogi instructor! Every fitness professional should have this in their toolbox!

Been using it for almost all my upper level classes!

Used this for a testing and prescription class. This book is extremely useful for practitioners and people wanting to learn more about how fitness tests are to be done.

I bought this to help with my PT course but have found it to be more for someone who is a professional worker or a graduate. It had informatin in it I needed but nothing any different to what I already had from the internet. It does have information for working with people who have disabilities, illnesses etc but again not for Jo blogs like myself.

Arrived on time and undamaged! Thank so much!

Non fatevi ingannare dalla "grandezza" del libro. Contiene pratici consigli per l'attività motoria adattata a soggetti con patologie e disabilità (e tante altre utili informazioni).

Muy útil y con lo esencial aunque la presentación en espiral con pasta blanda no me parece la ideal ya que fácilmente se puede maltratar, al llegar fue con unas impresiones por presión en la portada pero nada grave.

Não tem como melhorar. Livro completo de informações úteis pra todos nós profissionais da área da saúde. Comprei, Li, Reli e recomendo!
