Post by: The Squadfather on February 03, 2008, 11:58:00 AM
was looking through the latest M&F and up pops a training article and they're using our local phenom bodybuilder Mark Erpelding but they don't even tell the readers who the guy is, why do they do this shit?

  Because they're goofy--just like those kinds of people who use all caps in their thread titles to get attention.

hahaha actually considering the gym is right beside the grocery store that's pretty accurate

good call

Because the readers likely don't give a shit, just as readers of a fashion magazine couldn't care less about the model displaying the clothes in an article.

I offend wondered about that when I use to read Muscle and Fitness why they didnt use any bodybuilders names in the articles which I thought was rather odd at times but now I read FLEX when they do use the any bodybuilders name in the articles.

Simply because the article is not about the bodybuilder.  It only pictures his bodyparts in relation to the article to show some of the movements.
