FINALLY!!!
After signing up for this certification program in between computer jobs last May, I had the best intentions of studying and taking the exam within the 120 day period. But somehow, the books remained mostly closed and the weeks and months flew by. I even took the books on three separate vacations with the thought that I would study in my 'free' time. Ha, like that was going to happen!
I purchased an extension which would cover up to December. But that window came and went with no studying even attempted! So then it was onto the last extension. I figured the only option was to suck it up, buckle down and study 3 months of materials in 2 weeks during my almost non-existent free time. So I grabbed the books out, registered myself for the test and started cramming. I spent almost every 'spare' minute after Madison's bedtime and during naps on the weekends cramming on the study material. And I am happy to report that it all paid off with a passing grade on the 2 hour exam!

I also received the AFAA and ACE Personal Trainer certifications back in the early 2000s. NASM seems to be the latest most popular and highly accredited one so it will be good to have this under my belt.
