Free ACSM's Guidelines for Exercise Testing and Prescription
A good basic guide for exercise testing. I had looked at an older edition in our medical library but wanted the most recent version assuming the new would build on the old. Unfortunately this edition has less detailed physiology information than previous versions. I was hoping for more data and normative values, instead I get "how to" information that isn't practical day-to-day.
Good to have in an exercise lab, but not useful as a reference.
I'll have to find a good exercise physiology reference/text for my needs.
Look before you leap, it might not be what you expect.

I already used this book for several classes in college and was pretty acquainted with us. It gives all the guidelines that are benefitial and necessary for certification.
