Pronouncements & Scientific Communications

The American College of Sports Medicine publishes five types of official pronouncements reflecting the position or stance of the College on various topics. The pronouncement types each have different protocols for development and all undergo a rigorous review and approval process. ACSM's Pronouncements are published in one of ACSM's official journals, and all are made freely available to the public.

Organizations wishing to have ACSM consider endorsement of their scientific statement should direct all requests to Laura Young, Ph.D. 

On a case-by-case basis, pronouncement topics proposed by members of the College will also be considered. Contact Laura Young, Ph.D. for more information
