Resources for the NSCA-CPT?

[rem1956]

for those of you who have earned the NSCA-CPT, what resources, other than the textbook "Essentials of Personal Training", would you recommend? Any other good textbooks, websites or other type study aids that you know of and recommend?

Thanks!

The NSCA-CPT is such a general test that, in my opinion, you don't need any specialized information from more in-depth texts. I was actually very surprised at how general most of the information was.

To the best of my recollection there were about 10 to 20 questions from each major section of the book. I also don't remember there being many anatomy and physiology based questions.

Reading through the Essentials of Personal Training combined with general knowledge of fitness and health should more than suffice when taking the test. Just my opinion.

I agree. The text cover everything very well, that and the cd roms.
