I took NASM CPT test after 1.5 months of preparation and passed at first attempt. I finished the test in 1.5 hr. I studied everyday around 2-3 hrs everyday.

This exam certainly require good knowledge of anatomy and kinesiology etc.

I studied NASM "Essentials of Fitness Training" book and supplementary guide twice. Took the dummy test around 15 times. You will get lots of similar questions in the real exam but in a non directive manner.


Next, be very careful to READ THE WORDS in the question carefully, because most often, the words in the question repeat in the correct answer.
Don’t get discouraged by reading negative comment, learn from their mistake. Study regular which will keep your brain active for the exam.
In the end, don’t forget to take deep breath in the exam after regular interval which helps always.


BEST OF LUCK EVERYONE
