This is the primary problem with bodybuilding. Delusional fans are hung up on the past. Non-stop obsession with the past. “The old days were better... blah blah blah blah blah”.
Maybe it’s time you see a a fucking psychiatrist.
And it’s disgusting when a person has multiple accounts, and each account “chimes in” with their weird memories.
Note: Fortress knows that bodybuilding was a messed up sport in the 90’s. He didn’t just buy magazines... he saw all of the real, behind-the-scenes nonsense. He witnessed all of the shady behavior and he heard all of the lies.

So Fort is Red?

As a small childlet in the 1990's, I have precious memories of walking to Zellers [Canada's version of Wal-Mart, now defunct], WHERE THE LOWEST PRICE WAS THE LAW - EVERYDAY [until the corporation declared bankruptcy in 2013], and buying magazines for $6.99 CAD [$0.29 USD], with Pet Shop Boys singing "Go West" on the store's audio system.
In early 2001, just learning about bodybuilding, and thinking "If Greg Kovacs can gain 23-lb of lean muscle from MuscleTech, I can gain five, damnit!", I remember being shocked and in awe of a FLEX magazine cover of Kevin Levrone, where the featured article was about him dethroning Ronnie Coleman, where Kev [who was listed as 5'9"], said "I will be training for eight or nine months for the 2001 Mr. Olympia - I will not stop!", and thinking that all it took was hard work and a good diet to look like Kevin.
As opposed to that + massive amounts of steroids, growth hormone, and cutting agents - as well as being reborn with Kev's genetics.
WooSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Le Vro Nee

in this to win this
best magazine EVER: Strength Training for Beauty
end of thread ;)

Yeah Matt, same here (only 10 years before) : those were the days!
I was convinced it was actually possible to look like Reeves in a couple of years just via hard work and weight gain powder.....
If only I knew

I think they brought IronMan back. But, it apparently only comes out quarterly now and has many INBF/INBA natural competitors.
I saw a copy in Publix about a month ago with former pro wrestler and current INBA Natural Mr. Olympia, Rob Terry, on the cover.

Yes there are new owners, been sold again for the second time within the past few years. I checked it out at the supplemental store I frequent. Boring and sterile magazine

Is it because they featured Trish Stratus and Torrie Wilson, before they became wrestlers?

If you see who were the top names in BB in the past ............ opposed to Shawn Rhoden, Heath , etc you might want to dig in the past a bit more .
WooOSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Quarter turn to the right bitch
-
Amazing shot of Brian at a body weight of around 210lbs !!
-
This is an interesting cover . something the average Joe can stare at and maybe think It'd be cool to be a pro BB"
I wasn't even in the states when I saw this cover on stands around the planet ..... Paris looks like a super hero olympic kind of athlete there you can even see the gold medal on the FLEX logo ... very functional .
Good looks, good hair ,small waist great abs ....things of the past . ;D
WooSHHHHHHHHHHH

and now this. ::)

I have a few of these in my garage. This was when Muscular Development was going through its identity crisis, as in Muscular Development-Fitness-Health (MDFH) and All-Natural Muscular Development (ANMD).
They went back to the "We-Love-Steroids-Yes-We-Do!!-We-Love-Steroids-How-'bout-You?" format when Steve Blechman left Twinlab and bought the magazine from his family. But, for nearly a year and a half, they put silicon-stuffed-pseudo-porn-stars on the covers, with nary a bodybuilder in sight (except for the occasional inset).
-
and now this. ::)
That's a bit different. She was the Ms. Physique Olympia. And she's more muscular than the first Ms. Olympa, Rachel McLish, was in her prime.
