It's tough but worth it - Passed and got a job in one day
I appreciate all of the new information I've learned and I have been working out most of my life and I am 80 years old. But I needed AI to show me how to approach learning the information. Also used IPTA's coaching course to fully absorb the information. Reading/listening to the NASM course alone is a bit overwhelming on its own. after reviewing all of the information over about 6-7 weeks, then taking the NASM practice exams 8 times the information finally jelled. But I now have a formal way to approach and instruct people. I've gotten a position at a large commercial gym. Thanks
