As for me it's Flex (I know I'll get flamed for that) Muscle & Fitness and Muscular Development. MuscleMag International is just a monthly advertisement magazine - MuscleTech.

I guess 'cause I know I'm gonna enjoy all 3 mags, I just buy 'em.

I subscribe to MD, but occasionally I'll thumb through a Flex at the store and but it if it's got some good pictures. I don't even think about buying it for the articles since they are so lame.

My Girlfriend gets a subscription to Muscle and Fitness. Such great articles about Swiss Ball training and post workout shakes! Groundbreaking!!

I just stand in the store and read it for 30 minutes then leave...

The articles aren't all that bad. They just don't keep it real like MD.

MD. I'll pick it up without reading through it first.

I recently stopped buying magazines because its all recycled information anyways. I get my cutting edge news online. When I become a millionaire and then I will spend money on flex and md. I buy them only if there is somebody good in it like Arnold or haney specials! I haven't seen any of those mags in months now because I don't go shopping. I am rambling on and on.

i get my subscription of MD at home

i just wished i would get it before it hits the newstands

while I own 2500 vintage mags, I haven't bought a current mag in 15 years.

there are many people serious about collecting old bodybuilding mags. Do you think in 20 years people will be collecting the current 500 page supplement cataloges pretending to be bodybuilding mags? Who will have the shelf space?

That is true about contest articles, they are ok. Otherwise, almost everything else is pretty much pathetic.

And that is EXACTLY why I don't get subscriptions anymore.

I search my info online, and save money and time by not buying magazines.

Me to, ya gotta admit however, there is something pretty cool about the actual latest edition of MD comming right to your mailbox that is still pretty cool ya know

Ex Coelis · « **Reply #14 on:** May 19, 2006, 07:57:44 AM »

I get MD the day it comes out, usually hassling the store owner to break up the other bundles to find it.

LuciusFox · « **Reply #15 on:** May 19, 2006, 08:37:32 AM »

Why can't they get bodybuilding magazines to people at least around the time that they hit newstands? They do with other magazines.

gracie bjj · « **Reply #16 on:** May 19, 2006, 08:46:13 AM »

i go to barnes and noble and sit there for hours reading the mags,then if i like it ill steal it,i mean buy it

Naked4Jesus · « **Reply #17 on:** May 19, 2006, 08:58:09 AM »

I don't buy Bodybuilding Magazines. They're full of ads and bullshit. Occasionally there's some worthwhile content but not enough to justify actually buying the magazine. You can pretty much find all the same info on the internet so it's all really pointless. On the plus side if you look for info on the internet you won't have to thumb through tons of pages of bullshit, useless ads trying to sell junk that doesn't work to people that don't know any better.

I buy Muscle and Fitness don’t know why, just do…Its all the same info but what the hell maybe one day I’ll learn something.
