I still actually have that issue, first issue of flex I ever bought.  I was just a kid and I thought that picture was the coolest thing ever.

I'll probably always keep it since it's the first bodybuilding magazine I ever bought.

 and yes you're right the Ironman wasn't that great inside, Tom's interview is really good but no many pictures as i would wanted to.

I always thought that cover was funny because of the caption across from Tom's picture "Julie McNew's Powerful Legs" (Julie was Mike Mentzer's gf). Imagine someone walking by a newstand who wasn't a bodybuilding fan seeing Tom's picture and thinking... Julie's legs?  
and keep moving!

I don't know what guys like u look for in a bb board
i mean , i can understand hating on the tons of adds and the bullshit about muscletech etc in mags...

but if you don't like the pics or training articles of the legends.....

you should  try karate,mechanic, dancing lessons or something else.

Go f**k yourself, you're a sore ass piece of shit. Taking cheap shots at Platz's training is like moking M. Jordan's slam dunk.

Did you f**cker ever thought for a moment that he was on his WAY DOWN in the rep when the camera snapped that pic, asshole? That was the time when the people at Weider's made a point that every cover of FLEX was from REAL training sessions captured on camera. I miss Bill Reynolds days so bad. Peter McGough sucks ass big time and so does Chris Lund fake ass plates with fronted training sessions (did you guys ever see that  Kamali's spread , where he's front squatting in a smith machine with about 7 plates per side? LOL!!).

I have this exact same magazine edition. Inside it, they mentioned that on that particular day, Platz had ALREADY trained legs in the morning , and it was his heavy squat day  :o

In the afternoon, he was back at Gold's ONLY for that photoshoot, with his girlfriend at the time that happened to be his first wife, before Cha (Maxrep, help me here, what was her name?) and FYI, no, those are not fake plastic weights, they were the real deal.

Max rep, Julie was SOOOOOOOOOOO FREAKING HOT!!! I didn't know she was MM's girl at the time. That should be before Cathy Gelfo, shouldn't it? Damn, I became even more of a fan of Mentzer than I was before, if that's possible!  ;D

Max rep, please, tell us more about Julie and better yet, more about her relationship with Mike back in the day. Thanks! :D
