ACE Certified Personal Trainer Audio Prep: Chapter-by-Chapter Audio That Highlights the Key Concepts Required to Pass the American Council on Exercise Certified Personal Trainer Exam (Unabridged‪)‬

Study while on the go! Listen anytime, anywhere! Audio allows us to learn and absorb information during our busy schedules. This audio prep covers everything on the exam and references The Exercise Professional’s Guide to Personal Training by the American Council on Exercise presented in an easy -to-understand, chapter-by-chapter format. 

Note: The previous American Council on Exercise Personal Trainer Manual - Fifth Edition is still a valid tool to use for the exam.
