My experience helped me tremendously. In fact, I almost always referred back to the material provided by you in order to pass the exam. I seldom used the other material. Thanks again and keep up the good work.

The program was good it had way more details than the NASM study guide and it was very digestible. It was on my top two main sources of study.

Great material. I highly recommend. I Used this NASM study guide exclusively to pass the CPT test due to a time crunch; however, I recommend reading the manual completely and using this in conjunction with it to really know the material if you plan on taking on clients. The study guide will give you the nuts and bolts of the test but the manual is necessary for in-depth explanations.

The flash cards I downloaded from Trainer Academy helped me not only remember the information I need to learn but it helped me UNDERSTAND everything I need to become a trainer. Each flash card has detailed information that breaks things down vs reading the NASM book again because that would be an overload. I passed my exam on my first attempt and I couldn’t be happier that I had Trainer Academy to help me through the study process.

My experience with this study guide was amazing! Passed my test first try in a breeze.

Trainer Academy was a great resource as I studied for the NASM CPT exam. The practice exams covered much more material than the NASM exams, and that really helped me prepare and pass the final CPT exam. I was able to study and sit for the exam in about 5 weeks...ALOT faster than if I had just used the NASM program. I would highly recommend spending the money on the Trainer Academy program! Thanks guys!

I was overwhelmed with so much information, specially with my first lenguaje being Spanish. This was an excellent tool that help me to organize my thoughts and put me in a direction to pass my exam.
