The National 力量与调节 Association (www.nsca.com) is one of the largest professional organizations devoted to areas related to Exercise Science, 运动科学与人类表现. The NSCA offers a wide variety of programs and certifications that help students develop professionally. 学生会员 for the NSCA costs $65/year and provides access to all of their publications including the Journal of 力量与调节 Research and 力量与调节杂志 in addition to receiving cost reductions for attending conferences and taking certification exams. Simply registering for an exam or attending one conference can oftentimes cover the costs of a one-year membership.
