Developed by the National Strength and Conditioning Association
(NSCA), NSCA’s Essentials of Personal Training, Third Edition
With HKPropel Access, is the definitive reference for personal
training professionals and students. This comprehensive guide to
personal training, with contributions from leaders in the field,
provides the most accurate and reliable information and guidance
for current and aspiring professionals. Updated to reflect the
latest research, with clear explanations of supporting scientific
evidence, this edition will give readers the knowledge, skills, and
abilities (KSAs) needed by modern personal training professionals.
New content addresses the latest objectives found on the National
Strength and Conditioning Association’s Certified Personal
Trainer (NSCA-CPT) exam, maintaining this text’s position as the
single best resource for those preparing for the NSCA-CPT exam.
NSCA’s Essentials of Personal Training, Third Edition, provides
guidelines for the complex process of designing safe, effective,
and goal-specific resistance, aerobic, plyometric, and speed
training programs for clients of all ages and fitness levels. With
comprehensive coverage of various categories of unique client
needs, readers will learn how to make specific modifications and
adjust exercise programs for each individual client. Multiple
fitness testing protocols and norms for each component of
fitness—including 10 new tests—are all presented, along with
instructions that are detailed yet easy to follow. Over 200
full-color photos and accompanying instructions clearly describe
and visually show proper technique for exercises and drills,
including stretching, plyometrics, and stability ball exercises.
There are new sections on suspension training, manual resistance
training, and common types of resistance training equipment. Plus,
27 online videos, delivered through HKPropel, demonstrate exercise
technique in action, preparing readers to instruct clients through
safe exercise performance. Students will also be able to complete
chapter quizzes assigned by instructors through HKPropel. Study
questions at the end of each chapter, written in the same style and
format as those found on the NSCA-CPT exam, facilitate learning of
chapter content and fully prepare candidates for exam day.
Practicing professionals and aspiring professionals alike will
benefit from a new appendix of advice on building a successful
career as a personal trainer. NSCA’s Essentials of Personal
Training, Third Edition, remains the most comprehensive resource
available for personal training preparation and professional
development. Unmatched in scope, this essential text continues to
be a definitive reference for current and future personal trainers,
exercise instructors, fitness facility and wellness center
managers, and other fitness professionals. Note: A code for
