ABOUT THE WORKBOOK
This Workbook serves as a resource companion to your personal training textbook. The
Workbook has been designed with one main purpose: to help you better understand the
content of the main text. This is accomplished by focusing on important points and concepts,
and having you write the answers directly in the guide. This way of studying also provides an
easy way to follow the flow of the course text. If you follow along with the Workbook, you will
have covered ALL of the main topics of the course text.
Students employ different strategies to learn course materials and to prepare for the CPT
Certification Exam. The most commonly used strategy employs reading and underlining text
material; another includes outlining or writing key concepts. This Workbook encourages each
of these methods.
Experience has shown that individuals who faithfully use the Workbook achieve greater
understanding of the course materials than those who do not use a Workbook.
