NASM Essentials of Personal Fitness Training

A very useful book

Significantly cheaper than the new edition but clearly the same material

If you intend on becoming a personal trainer through NASM, don’t buy this book from anyone other than NASM BECAUSE NASM forces you to buy it anyways apart of your expenses. Great book.

Exactly what was advertised and what I expected. Great for the price.

I purchased the basic NASM package for the test and it didn't include the text book. I really like the book for it's usefulness, I can take notes and reference it whenever I need to. How NASM teaches strength and conditioning and their programming leaves a lot to be desired, but if you want to pass the test and get the cert you need to know it and this is a good way.

Most comprehensive NASM study guide out there. The pictorial demonstrations are awesome. Good quality.

this book break the surface of a couple important fitness topics... remember nasm is SPORT MEDICINE ! so its a lot of correctional things plus a bunch of assessments, techniques ... over all .. amazing book

Bought as 'Used, Very Good and I'm glad I took the gamble and got it. Great condition. No marks. No bent pages or corners. Every page is present and I'm happy.

Great book to support the study of Rehabilitation Science/Sports Science... a US text though as not many UK texts of this ilk (recommended reading text though). Also quite expensive, but a fantastic book with great pictorial illustration.

Very pleasant to read. Sometimes I feel that the pages are so fragile that I will rip them when I turn page but after all, it's a book so what can you expect. Also a big fan of the few pages of buisness related content!

Fast Shipping. The corner of the book was damaged and looked a little banged up, but other than that good buy!

The book itself contains great information especially regarding the NASM qualifications however the quality of the book really lets itself down. The pages feel like they are likely to rip and must be handled with total care. The reason it only gets three stars is I don’t think this book will last to long even in the most careful of hands.

This book is a study guide only, it's only relevant if you have all the course literature and guides. I didn't so it is completely useless!
