I loved everything about the product minus the mnemonics. Just wasn't my thing, but I do like that they are accessible for people who can ustalize them. My favorite was the flash cards. I was able to study on the go with my phone.

All the study guide materials were exactly what I needed to help better remember many of the concepts. Just reading the book I was overwhelmed but the tools here helped me remember them and learn them..I was able to confidently pass my exam my first go.

I originally got the Trainer Academy to help pass my NASM CNC test. It was so valuable that I also purchased it for my CPT test and studying. With my package, I was given audio reviews of each chapter that were extremely helpful, as well as practice tests that were based on information taken from the NASM CNC test. There were study guides that were extremely helpful, and quizzes that allowed me to solidify the information I needed to know. I also received study flashcards and mnemonics to help with remembering key information and phrases. Knowing that I had Trainer Academy there to prep for the test also gave me a comfort level that I believe helped with the actual taking of the test! I passed my test the first time I took it with a score of 87%!

Trainer Academy was worth every penny! Trainer Academy provides excellent flash cards, mnemonics, study guides, audio recordings, practice quizzes and exams for a reasonable rate. I felt more than prepared to guide and direct the areas of my post-grad certification study. A critique that I have is that there are study guides for Personal Training as opposed to Group Exercise Instruction dynamics. There are interrelations, of course, but it would have been cool if there were an ACSM-GEI study guide but my graduate and undergraduate textbooks, ACSM Textbook for Group Fitness Instructors from the official ACSM website along with Trainer Academy study packages compensated for sure! ACSM-CPT study package goes into very precise detail and I respect that Trainer Academy helps navigate through all my recollections from Anatomy & Physiology, Kinesiology, Biomechanics, Exercise Physiology, Psychology, Sociology, Biochemistry, and more! I am happy to say that I earned my ACSM-GEI certification and I am eternally grateful for the impact of Trainer Academy. Thank You!

It has been super helpful to have practice quizzes at such great length that are separated by subject on the CSCS exam to help me figure out which parts I need more focus on throughout the study process for this lengthy exam

Hey Jack, I am glad you found the materials to be helpful in your certification studies. The CSCS is a tough exam, but it sounds like you will be ready when it is time to take the exam.
