NSCA's Essentials of Personal Training: 9780736084154: Medicine & Health Science Books @ desertcart.com Review: Great reference source...has already helped me in exercise science - While I haven't had a chance to read the whole thing yet, I bought this book as I make my entry into the world of exercise science at community college. The section on orthopedic injury and older adults has been helpful in some research projects already. NSCA is a well respected organization and one that is very reliable. I know I'll be consulting this text again and again. Review: Great Textbook for Trainers or General Fitness Enthusiasts - I'm a former Cooper Institute trained personal trainer and this text was my first step towards certifying with NSCA. The text is well formatted, easy to maneuver, and very thorough. Very detailed on both the medical and fitness aspects of training. Overall, very satisfied with this book.
