Review:
Reviewer's Quote: The Fun Facts may be my favorite part of the book. All of them were very interesting and different. They are always good for discussion and give the reader a slight break from the material but still keep it relevant to the subject. - Robert Maxwell. M.A. Exercise Physiology; ACSM CPT; Director of Sports Medicine and Fitness Technology; Keiser University, Daytona Beach Campus.

Reviewer's Quote: I would absolutely recommend the adoption of the new edition of this book! I really like this textbook. I think it has great information that is presented in an easy to follow format that is welcoming for entry level fitness professionals. - Kasey M. Lloyd, M.S., Program Director, Keiser University, Lakeland Campus, Sports Medicine & Fitness Technology
