Comparative Exercise Physiology
Journal Impact Factor™
Comparative Exercise Physiology has a Journal Impact Factor™ of 0.8 and the 5 year Journal Impact Factor™ is 0.7. Source: Journal Citation Reports™ from Clarivate, 2025.
CiteScore™
The journal's CiteScore™ is 1.5 (CiteScore™ 2022. Calculated by Scopus 2023).
Aims and scope
Comparative Exercise Physiology is the only international peer-reviewed scientific journal specifically dealing with the latest research in exercise physiology across all animal species, including humans. The major objective of the journal is to use this comparative approach to better understand the physiological, nutritional, and biochemical parameters that determine levels of performance and athletic achievement. Core subjects include exercise physiology, biomechanics, gait (including the effect of riders in equestrian sport), nutrition and biochemistry, injury and rehabilitation, psychology and behaviour, and breeding and genetics. This comparative and integrative approach to exercise science ultimately highlights the similarities as well as the differences between humans, horses, dogs, and other athletic or non-athletic species during exercise. The result is a unique forum for new information that serves as a resource for all who want to understand the physiological challenges with exercise.

The result is a unique global forum for new information that serves as a resource for all who want to understand the physiological challenges associated with exercise. Papers published in Comparative Exercise Physiology have examined a range of biomedical topics in humans and animals, as well as studies using animal models to examine the effects of nutrition and exercise on physiological parameters. The editorial board and the authors who contribute to the journal come from highly regarded medical schools, veterinary schools, and other biomedical institutions. The common interest is a global recognition that “exercise is medicine”. The ethos of Comparative Exercise Physiology is to provide an outlet for excellent science related in the very broadest sense to the field of exercise physiology. The journal is clearly a niche for publication of material that does not appeal to the classical veterinary or human orientated journals. The journal serves as a resource for those who utilize horses, humans, dogs, birds, pigs, camels, rodents and other species to enhance our understanding of the strategies each species utilizes to cope with the challenge of acute exertion and the adaptive response to exercise training.
