Be interesting to see if they make it.  If they keep with same shit the BB mags have been doing in the past couple years, they'll never survive.

Won't last.  Chances of making it are far more narrow than Heath.

Should have poured all of that cash they got from dealing juice internationally into a website.

I hope they still have plenty of fit whores in their magazine.  The less clothes the better.

Looks like Iron Man will serve as a Trojan horse for  Bombshell Sportsware.  Non stop clothing ads will be a refreshing change from supplements.

Men's Health has a circulation way over all the bodybuilding magazines combined. The ads are also interesting. High end watches, clothes, cars and colognes instead of endless snake oil supplements with pictures of steroid bodybuilders claiming supplements work.

If they want to make money then they have to get away from the subculture of a fringe sport of steroid bodybuilding and get into fitness, health and training for another sport.  Notice how many magazines are complete clones of Men's Health? They see the crazy success of it and want to fool the buyers at check out. Normal guys buy sports, guns, mechanical, and other magazines. Very few guys are walking to the counter with a oiled up man in a speedo on the cover magazine. "Not that there's anything wrong with that."

THOSE were the PLATINUM days of bodybuilding articles, that and the old Muscle Builders and 1980's MUSCLEMAGS!!!
I can literally remember reading them over and over, had a subscription in the military to MUSCLEMAG in 1990's as it was hella cheaper to subscribe!!!

Bad move.  BBing mags were history a long time ago.  A friend of mine works at Barnes and Noble (they have a huge magazine rack).  I asked him which mags don't sell.  He said that magazine sales in general are not doing well.  BBing mags are at the top of the list of non-sellers.  Even the neophytes do not buy them anymore.  Tattoo, gun and various women's fashion mags are top sellers there.

I agree with you. They need to get more of the Musclemania guys on there, and have them pose like its a lifestyle mag. Like this:


Now, imagine that pic with some headlines about the newest mountain bike, the newest audio tech, etc
Along with "super setting bis and tris" and a "how Ulisses Jr won X show."

It used to be a good magazine, esp their European edition.
