I woke up at 6:30.
I went to the gym.
(recycled)
I completed day 2 of half marathon training.
I came home and made breakfast.
I studied.
I made a green smoothie to go to fuel me through the big event ahead.
I made it to my destination on time.
I was so nervous that I chewed my thumb nail down to nothing.
I accidentally restarted my computer but luckily the information was retrieved.
I had some serious adrenaline pumping through me.
I hit the “end” button.
Today is the day I can finally say I am an ACSM Certified Personal Trainer.
And it feels like a dream.
I would get 100% on the nutrition and weight management section.

Hi Molly! I actually purchased all of the ACSM books at a discounted rate on Ebay or Amazon (can’t remember, but both have them!). I studied on my own and used a lot of notecards that I made! They have 3 day workshops available, which was really helpful. Lastly, you just schedule the test whenever is convenient! If you have any questions, feel free to e-mail me!
Congratulations Jillian!! Sorry, I’m just getting caught up on my blog reading so I’m a few days late but super excited for you nonetheless!!
I knew you’d rock it!
