Product Description

Product Description

"ACSM's Guidelines for Exercise Testing and Prescription" began as a concise summary of recommendations for exercise testing and prescription primarily for cardiac patients; it has now become one of the single most internationally read and referenced texts of its kind. This reference is a virtual pharmacopoeia of exercise guidelines in a broad spectrum of patients. In this new edition there is heightened emphasis on preventing illness in apparently healthy persons and those 'at risk', as well as treating patients with chronic disease. There are also two new chapters on methods for changing exercise behavior and legal issues.

An excellent resource! 7 May 2000
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Spiral-bound
The newest edition of ACSM's guidelines continues to be the gold standard for the professional in sports medicine. The content is research based and fairly easy to interpret and apply. Information is easy to access and the new spiral bound edition is much more user friendly. Overall, I think that ACSM does a great job in providing professionals in the field of sports medicine and exercise physiology with the practical information they need on a daily basis.
