Sorry.
I agree 100%. I remember when I was 16 and my driving instructor told me that when I was taking "the driving test with the DMV officer, to always stop and pause for 3 seconds at each stop sign".

He then said, "once you pass the exam and you get your license, you can roll thru all the stop signs you want"

The ACSM is what it is. If you want to challenge the instructor on the use of machines, its not his/her fault. But his job is to teach you whats in the book. I am curious...is this a WITS course?
