Frank McGrath on cover of January 2012 issue of Flex

Loving the use of the beanie hat to disguise the dramatically receding hairline

Always enjoy the magazines even in the internet age, but usually when I am on the road.   Especially like this issue since there is a page of my pictures in it from the IFBB Sacramento and IFBB Border States.

Pretty cool.

Subscription to Flex and Muscle & Fitness is so cheap anymore.  I get Flex mag for $9 annually including shipping.  Honestly that's even a bit overpriced for them.  All those magazines look the same anymore.

This was the first Flex mag i ever bought, had every one since until about 6 months or so ago. I cant stand the repetitive bullshit anymore.

I remember looking at that mag in Rite Aid, and these guys and girls went by and said he looked like a roided out nerd, like a George Castanza...

Tyrannosaurus Pecs would be a good Getbig username.

Pecosaurus: pronounciation, pec-o-saur-us, noun, A dinosaur of the early Insulin Period, of the  therapods---dinosaurs who walked upright on their hind legs. They have massively well developed pectoral muscles---of which usage is still being studied...it has been debated that thet branched off of species which spawned the current day modern bird.

[NYSTATEOFMIND]

[arce1988]

[irishdave]

who is the handsome man with glasses?

[Tito24]

who is the handsome man with glasses?

hi wizard

[BayGBM]

i'd be more embarrased bying one of these shit magazines than buying full on porn

Shades of grey...

Once again, I must agree because the truth is always...Well, the truth.

Is that a condom on this assclowns dome?  No one, supercalifragelisticabso fuckinglutely no one I personally know thinks a "physique" of this type is attractive or even useful.

Now Steve Reeves, Clancy Ross, Reg Park, Bob Paris, Frank Zane, Steve Davis and to a lesser degree, the Oak (he was the rare exception as he is ARNOLD),  physiques of this calibre are considered far more aesthetic to people.

By people I mean the general populace. Those that account for 99.999999999999999999999 999999999999999999999999 9999999999999 % of the world's population.

I agree with you there, but damn your living in the past. You must be older than dirt.

I was about to register that actually, but it's a bit too long with a space and all 

[BIG_STI]

Lol claims he was still 210 after laying in a bed for 4 months  but could hardly curl 20lb dumbbells at that weight

It took you 13 years to figure out it was repetitive bullshit?

[GraniteCityDon]

It was more of a habit thing, i liked some of the contest coverage and skipped pretty much everything else

[Brocty]

It was more of a habit thing, i liked some of the contest coverage couldn't resist the oiled up glutes and skipped pretty much everything else

 

[Nails]

Sucks that frank lost both of his triceps, but I give him respect to show up at the olympia this year and not fill his arms with synthol like cutler and other bodybuilders

[Impactedman]

Allan Donnelly leaves FLEX magazine with it's worst cover in decades. I imagine this is like a proverbial check to the nut sack of AMI/Weider. A big FUCK YOU. McGrath is handsome and has tremendous arms, but this is the worst picture of him, ever. Torn tri, no face, doo-rag headband thingy. I would be interested in seeing the #s for this atrocity.


Hey Ron- This is my vote for worst cover of the year/decade.

AD- Well played, sir.
