These mags stick Arnold on the cover all the fucking time. Then they act like it's something rare and you must buy it.

yes its terrible but people probably rather buy a bbing magazine with something as "accepted" as arnold on the cover than some "steroid unknown criminal" on it.
and you have people buying the arnold magazine who would never buy a normal bbing magazine .

jesus why buy a bbing magazine anyway, its the biggest waste of money, buying supplements is still a little more useful than that.

While those pics are 35-40 years old......Arnold still looks better than champs like Branch or Johnny Jackson Specialy in poses like that.....

But what's funny is that you see more rare pictures of Arnold than in those magazines.



WOOOOSSSSHHHHHHHH

Because its a pain taking the computer into the bathroom to jerk off its a lot easier to take the magazine.

Good question........

They're like $7.00

So I think at that price,they must be selling...specially in this particular case,with Arnold on cover and expandables coming in two weeks.

Why people still buy bodybuilding magazines is beyond me.

I remember buying a pair of Muscular Development & Flex magazines back in 2000 and found them both to be utter garbage.

Muscular development was composed of 15 pages of muscle cartoons, followed by 10 pages of ghost written articles and then 200 pages of useless advertising, which would then culminating with a 3 page ramble from Valentino.  The worst part is that they would always tout on their covers how their present issue was the biggest one up to date; when in reality their useless magazine was 90% advertisements and 10% garbage anyway.

Flex tried to have a little more integrity, but when you have an article supposedly written by Ronnie Coleman where he uses words that could only be attributed to a literature major, it starts to smell like shit. 

Both magazines went crazy with their photoshopped covers, not to mention their pricing scheme.

Pure garbage..

Seems to me they are trying to regain some mainstream attention and they know Arnold's physique will always be accepted rather than the current mass monsters out there.

As a kid I really thought they wrote those articles themselves, until I realized most of them were (close to) illiterate... ;D
