Learn ways to boost your resume by authoring NSCA articles. Available publications, links to guidelines, and who to contact for more information are presented in this article.
Whether you are just starting out in your career or a seasoned professional, publishing gets your name out to the public and allows you to educate peers about what is important to you. As a professional, publishing on topics you are passionate about allows you to demonstrate your specialized knowledge, core values, ability to teach others, and ability to motivate others.
The National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA) offers several peer-reviewed ways to get published:
Strength and Conditioning Journal (SCJ)
This journal is published bimonthly and contains practical, hands-on knowledge professionals can immediately implement with their clients and athletes. Articles are based off proven research and presented in a readable format. Interested in publishing?
The Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research (JSCR)
This monthly, research-based publication publishes completed research studies. Articles included in this journal add to the growing wealth of knowledge of conditioning, exercise, and sports.
NSCA Coach
One of the newest additions to the NSCA family of journals, NSCA Coach focuses on the athlete, their training requirements and needs, as well as the coaches that train these athletes at all levels. NSCA Coach is published quarterly and articles are accepted year-round.
Personal Training Quarterly (PTQ)
Another new addition, Personal Training Quarterly focuses on one-on-one training, group training, special population training, and business development for the personal trainer. The PTQ is published quarterly.
TSAC Report
Military, firefighters, police, and first responders are just some of those who define the tactical athlete. The TSAC Report focuses on training tactical athletes, their special needs, and nutrition; it also provides information for the tactical facilitators responsible for their training.
