About this product
Product Information
NPTI's Fundamentals of Fitness and Personal Training makes the principles and theories of fitness accessible for all readers. Written in a conversational tone with real-life examples, this text helps students understand how the body works and responds to exercise. Readers will learn how to create exercise programs that allow their future clients to accomplish individual fitness goals. This book combines technical detail with practical application in an engaging manner. Anatomical illustrations and photos provide further guidance on the science of personal training, complete with coverage of specific muscle systems and how to train them. Extensive information on essential nutrients, coupled with guidance on helping clients burn fat and build strength, helps future trainers take the sessions beyond simple workouts. Stories and examples lend insight into the scientific concepts, helping students to understand more complex topics. Legal considerations, including how to assess and classify clients and minimize risk, prepare readers for the realities of a career in personal training. Step-by-step coverage of exercise program design takes the guesswork out of developing workouts and helps readers modify programs for special populations and clients dealing with injuries. Sample workouts designed by expert personal trainers cover key fitness training concepts and offer unique training ideas to keep exercise fun and effective for clients. Study questions at the end of each chapter help students assess their understanding of the material, and online access to a list of more than 3,000 references extends learning beyond the classroom. An instructor guide and presentation package plus image bank are available to instructors, helping them explore concepts from the text in the classroom. NPTI's Fundamentals of Fitness and Personal Training has been endorsed by the National Personal Training Institute (NPTI), the nation's largest system of schools devoted to personal training education. NPTI's mission is to prepare students to become personal trainers and fitness professionals. NPTI strives to provide a high-quality education experience that each student values and would recommend to peers.
