AHA Stratification - Personal Trainer Community - Forum

[Dre]

acsm says that their stratification is consistent with AHA's, should I focus on AHA's classes? or stick with the acsm's?

[Mitchel]

If you're already in ACSM classes, stick with them. Overall, since they are both consistent with each other, changing classes to AHA may not make a big difference.

Thanks for the input Mitchel.

But i was actually referring to the AHA stratification. ACSM uses low, moderate, high risk...well AHA uses Class A, Class B, Class C, etc...

I just wanted to know if this should be known inside out or will the ACSM stratification suffice?
