1) Hardcover Book Fitness Professional's Handbook by Human Kinetics Publishers. This book was the required text for my Personal Fitness Trainer course. It´s very interesting and informative. The only problem I have with the book is that sometimes it´s extremely complicated to understand. That said, it was written for people who have already taken Anatomy & Physiology. I have not taken that class, so it may be simple enough for people who have taken A & P. Apart from that aspect, it is an excellent tool for study. I would even recommend it for those who want to learn how to better their lives by becoming more fit (and more aware), whether they take a class or not.¤ 2) Hardcover Book Fitness Professional's Handbook by Human Kinetics Publishers. Not only does this book serve as a great classroom textbook, it is also great desk reference material that should be utilized by today´s fitness professional. Jam-packed with the latest information from the authority in fitness, the ACSM.¤ 3) Hardcover Book Fitness Professional's Handbook by Human Kinetics Publishers. Over 80,000 copies of previous editions are sold worldwide. This work is designed as a course text for students in fitness and sport and exercise science, as well as a reference for fitness professionals and personal trainers preparing for certification. Formerly titled "Health Fitness Instructor´s Handbook", this full-colour text has a new title to reflect its extensive use in the field.
