Journals that publish articles on the topic of exercise immunology
Exercise Immunology Review
Exercise Immunology Review (EIR) is the official publication of the International Society of Exercise and Immunology and the German Society of Sports Medicine and Prevention and there is only one issue each year. It is committed to developing and enriching knowledge in all aspects of immunology that relate to acute exercise and regular physical activity. EIR publishes review articles and papers with new, original data including an extended, review-like discussion.

Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise
This is the official journal of the American College of Sports Medicine. It contains sections on clinical science, basic science and applied sciences. Each issue usually has at least one article on exercise immunology that can be useful for both postgraduate and undergraduate students.
Sports Medicine
This journal focuses on commissioned review articles which interpret and evaluate current literature. These articles often provide an excellent overview of current research in all aspects of exercise physiology, particularly for those interested in more clinical aspects, including exercise immunology.

British Journal of Sports Medicine
This journal contains a series of original articles on exercise physiology, including case studies and reviews. Although it has a strong clinical emphasis, it does provide articles that are useful for undergraduate level study, the level of which is appropriate because the main audience of the journal is not physiology specialists.
Journal of Sports Medicine and Physical Fitness
This journal includes articles on applied physiology in addition to other sports science disciplines. The breadth of articles available is particularly useful for sports science students.

Journal of Applied Physiology
This journal covers the entire spectrum of physiology, including human physiology. Although many of the articles are not relevant to sport and exercise physiology, this journal often contains articles that provide a mechanistic understanding of effects of exercise on systems physiology including the immune system and it is therefore particularly useful at postgraduate level.
European Journal of Applied Physiology
This is an established journal, which frequently includes both applied and specific research articles in exercise immunology.
