1.ACSM s Resource Manual for Guidelines for Exercise Testing and Prescription (Books)ACSM's Resource Manual for Guidelines for Exercise Testing and Prescription (Books)
from Lippincott Williams & Wilkins
Price: $3.14

Customer Review:
As a resource manual for passing the ACSM's HFS Certification Exam it leaves a lot to be desired. For a 3rd edition it is painfully full of typo errors which include wrong answers for the review tests which makes you doubt your knowledge. In addition it only covers about 1/2 of what's on the exam.... more info
