Post by: Scimowser on March 04, 2006, 06:34:31 AM

He mentioned that on some exercises (back) he is stronger than tripple H. They gave his work out splits but not his diet and from what I read he is not big on Cardio.

That is a great body for any age let alone 60.

BTW, I am getting M&F for $3/year from http://www.magsforless.com/pd_muscle.cfm

if anyone know where I can get other bodybuilding mag for great price please post a link.

I'm no MBA... but how can they sell 12 issues of M&F for $2.98?  How can any business run at such a deficit? I don't care what your volume is.  Shipping alone costs more than $.25 an issue.  Explainations, anyone?

ad revenue helps pad overhead costs and can help with the product costs.  But unless they have some magic beans, I don't see how this is sustainable in the face of competition.  If they have some barrier to entry that others cannot figure out, I applaud em.  Just seems that when things seem too good to be true, they usually are...

The pose looks curiously similar to the old bronze "Master Blaster" bust that has Joe's head sitting on top of Robby Robinson's torso... ;D

Nah, just kidding.  Vince always has been in pretty damn good shape.

This 3 dollar deal is legit.  I ordered MF before and received all 12 issues for total 3 bucks.  It was only then that I realized why I stopped reading it after age 16......ebery workout is ARMS LIKE NEVER BEFORE and LIFT LIKE THE PROS.... >:(

No spam to my fake email account either  ;)

Flex did kind of the same thing about 5 years ago during the O weekend, but it was $12 per year.  I got the year and let it expire.  They never tried to get me back?  I think it's mostly to get a mailing list of health concious people.  Then sell the list to the mail order end of the industry.

No idea, but I got a bunch of free subscriptions to maxim, stuff and two other magazines, can't remembe their names. All for $0.

Subscribers (paid or not) are more important to the magazines than anything else. Ad prices are based on the number of subscribers. If M&F can raise their subscription base by 25,000 units, they can justify raising ad rates to their advertisers.  More importantly, though, is that when they are LOSING SUBSCRIBERS (particularly when audit season is near), they need to keep their advertisers happy. The only way to do that without lowering ad rates is to give away free (or nearly free) subscriptions.

Even at 3 bucks I wouldn't subscribe again.  Just too many beginner articles to keep me reading...

I met VM back in the late 80's. I have to honestly say that he impressed me more than any of the wrestler's I met.He was/is a big man. Wide shoulders & narrow waist. He was alot bigger & in better shape than 3/4 of his wrestlers.

Vince could slam Andre the Giant.

i wouldnt mess with him, hes a big guy for 60 - well for any age! With HHH as a son in law he has some solid back up ha ha ha. Anyone see the episode of punk'd when they got HHH? He tried to intimidate the cameraman and couldnt handle it when the guy wasnt having any of it lol

Also, anyone know why Marty Jannetty has had his ties with WWE severed already? I thought he'd be back for a while

I think it was last year when he and Hogan had an arm wrestling match....

I remember and was shocked as to how much bigger Vince was than Hogan.  Vince looks amazing for any age....

I think it's pretty obvious this guy is "Using". Seems pretty funny considering his whole "Wellness anti steroid program" he's endorsing for the WWE talent.

Vince did get busted for distributing to his employees several years ago; probably wouldn't be hard to dig up an old article for anyone who cared to read into it.  It seems pretty obvious that it didn't slow him or anyone else down, however.  ;D

Edit: I did find something about it; not an article but pertinent information, nonetheless.  Turns out he was indicted but never found guilty...

I thought he was aquitted of all charges? If I recall, They tried to get him, but the trial made it clear that he did NOT distribute steriods to his wrestlers.  I think he admitted to encouraging them to use them, but that is totally different than selling them or handing them out.

he basiclaly told some of them they would not get contract renewels or raises unless they started/upped their steroid use

there was never any reason for people to believe that the WWE had steroids. The Warlord was a 330lb natural and his arms were 24" from puberty
