NASM Test

by Rob
(Key West, FL)

Just a warning for anyone taking the NASM examination. I aced the practice exam, knew everything that I had studied on, knew every single muscle and its actions, everything, and the exam still was the hardest test I have EVER taken in my life.

The exam is NOTHING like the practice test that NASM allows you to take. It is hard to explain and I don't even know why it is SO different than the practice test, but it is, and I am not the only person who has this same opinion. I did pass though.

I have not worked at a gym yet because there aren't too many here in Key West, but I have been doing at home training.

NASM - It's not that hard
by: ilka

I have to agree that the NASM practice test is quite different than the actual test, but it does give you a hint where you need to study up a little bit more.

I am from Germany, so english is my second language and for me studying the NASM book was like learning chinese. I I have to admit I really thought I wasn't prepared enough, but I passed the test the first time and have to say that it wasn't that hard at all.

I think if you love fitness and everything that has to do with it and you enjoy learning about it, than taking the test won't be hard. With difficult question you just have to use common sense sometimes.

I am not saying it is easy but if I can do it in a foreign language that you can do it, too. Good luck.

N.A.S.M. Is the authority in Fitness
by: Anonymous

With this cert you will gain more respect than any other really. I studied for three months and passed by the seat of my pants. NASM has developed one of the safest, functional, and cutting edge modules out there.

I have to agree
by: Anonymous

I just took the NASM test this week and passed. You do need to prestudy. I am so glad I watched the videos and used the book. I think there are only a few quetions on the practice that are on the test.
