Journal of strength and conditioning research
The editorial mission of the JSCR, formerly the Journal of Applied Sport Science Research (JASSR), is to advance the knowledge about strength and conditioning through research. Since 1978 the NSCA has attempted to "bridge the gap" from the scientific laboratory to the field practitioner. A unique aspect of this journal is that it includes recommendations for the practical use of research findings. While the journal name identifies strength and conditioning as separate entities, strength is considered a part of conditioning. This journal wishes to promote the publication of peer-reviewed manuscripts that add to our understanding of conditioning and sport through applied exercise and sport science.
