ACSM is one of the most reputable organizations for anything dealing with exercise. I am using this book for a class in college and it is perfect. There are great tables, figures, and flow-charts. The book covers everything from risk stratification and risk factors for CVD to different protocols for sub-maximal exercise tests. This book will prepare you for a client that comes to you for the first time having no idea how to start exercise. Once again, great book. Highly recommended.

This Guideline is mainly for your review of ACSM and it didn't provide much details so don't expect too much on it.

Good stuff. I use it all the time when teaching lab. I need nine more words so this is it.

This book was in new condition just like it said. The book was useful for my course. I got the book on suggestion from the teacher. It was cheaper here than the bookstore on campus.

I'm so happy I decided to buy this book! It was optional for my class but has proven to be very helpful while I was doing my labs! It has very up to date and useful information. It would help in any basic fitness assessment type of class. I recommend it.

Book came quickly and on time for when classes started at my university. IT seems to be a useful book, but have not yet used it for exercising purposes yet.

Great book! Tons of information all in a small, easy to carry around book. Good for getting ready for exams.

I often purchase books for my work mates(lawyers) for use in understanding how personal injury or prevention of personal injury has its roots in Exercises. I am glad that it was available when I needed it. Never stop moving... JO

This is an essential Book for general practitioners and cardiologists. As an MD this is essential and nicely written. Easy to use.

I bought this because it was mandatory for a class I was taking. It was very useful. Some of my classmates liked the 7th ed. better because there were more tables that organized the information. Overall a good book.
