Well, if you want to stay up-to-date on the latest developments in the sports sciences, you should consider the Journal of Pure Power. We cover the latest developments for general performance enhancement, s&c, sports med., sport psychology, sports nutrition, and womens/youth issues as related to maximizing performance. This makes us the most comprehensive journal on the market

Now, we do this by "translating" science lingo into user-friendly English that makes sense to anybody and we have a minimum of advertising (most advertisers can't meet our strict standards on product credibility and integrity). We also have a free eNewsletter that might be of interest to you before you subscribe.

Hope this helps,

Dan
