SUMMARY

This discussion focuses on identifying journals that publish research related to cycling, particularly the physiology of endurance cycling. Key resources mentioned include PubMed and PubMed Central for accessing studies, as well as the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA) and the National Athletic Trainers Association (NATA) for potential journal sources. The consensus is that searching for specific studies using targeted keywords in databases is more effective than seeking out dedicated cycling journals.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of sports medicine research methodologies
  • Familiarity with PubMed and PubMed Central databases
  • Knowledge of the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA) resources
  • Basic skills in using academic search engines like Google Scholar
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the latest publications from the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA)
  • Explore the National Athletic Trainers Association (NATA) journal for relevant articles
  • Learn how to effectively use PubMed for searching cycling physiology studies
  • Investigate the use of Google Scholar for finding dispersed cycling research across various journals
USEFUL FOR

Researchers, sports scientists, and fitness professionals interested in the physiological aspects of endurance cycling and those looking to access relevant academic literature.

I'm curious: which journals usually have cycling research posted to them? If the term is too much of a catch-all, then I'm mostly interested in the physiology of the high endurance portion (as opposed to sprinting).
 
Biology news on Phys.org
Cycling as in riding a bike? Most likely some sort of sports medicine or sports science journal. If you have specific questions it's probably easier to search for a study rather than a journal directly.
 
Aside from pubmed or pubmed central (the latter lists free articles if you don't have access to journals through subscriptions/universities/libraries etc), you can try the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA) at the link below. I'm not really sure if the journals they list are peer reviewed in any way, but the organization is pretty legit. They are not free journals AFAIK, though I have not been reading too much sports medicine research in the past couple of years so I'm "out of the loop."

National Athletic Trainers Association (NATA) also has a journal, I believe.

ryan_m_b is correct though. You're better off searching for the topic through a search engine/database (like pubmed or google scholar). Finding a journal dedicated to cycling and specifically to the physiology of long duration cycling is probably impossible. You'll find tons of research on cycling dispersed throughout many journals though, so a few appropriate keywords in pubmed will be way more helpful than looking through individual associations/organizations.
