as i gift i've got a 5 year sub. to FLEX. as soon as pecker took over, the mag kinda sucked. all they did was have arnold features, like 2 training features, no new great research reports, etc.
but over the past year or so, its gotten much better. particularily, the part when a writer goes to a gym and records the actual workout and compiling a compilation of the best bodyparts etc. no other mag does that.
the pics are the best, but they could probably do away with the team FLEX bs and post some scientific stuff. but overall, i think they are doing a good job.
MD is good, but it has so much useless shit in there. Besides, who ever said you can ONLY have/read 1 bbing mag?
