Magazines...

Yeah so true , when I was 17 I used to see all the muscletech ads and believe them and waste all my money on there supplements lol

You mean Kai Green DOESN'T use Muscletech???

I can tell you right now what's on the cover of any magazine without even looking @ it:

Grow You Arms 3 inches in 3 weeks with this workout (page 54)

Fat Burning Techniques Revealed (page 108)

Some "article" with fancy graphs and pie charts showing how some BS Muscletech product does XYX (page 23,66, 91, 134, 157)

Has anyone here looked thru any of the bodybuilding magazines that are being published today?

Does it ever piss you off when you see ads like free legal steroids (for like $800) or bullsh** like testobolan 250, or where they misspell Anadrol as Anodrol?

I know it pisses me off and I was just wondering what others thought on this issue.

Most of the mags now days are just advertising from supplement companies.
There was a day when some of them were great.
 
The FDA is concerned about aas, but selling garbage for consumption to uninformed or misinformed individuals for outrageous prices is o.k........ Am I missing something??

it says on the bottle a disclaimer that the supplement isn't approved by the fda or some other blah blah blah.. so they get away with it.

most of the crap in those magazines is stuff I already knew anyway... talking about what to eat, what not to eat. setting up workout splits... studies that say almonds do whatever or grassfed beef is healthier etc etc. all stuff that is well known to any experienced gym rat.

if i am flying on an airplane and don't have room to pack some books I will buy these mags before i board something to read on the plane. most of the models in those mags you can tell are photoshopped like crazy to make them look crazy looking and/or spent 3 days fasting and de-hydrating themselves. not realistic for 16 year olds to expect to look like that.

Lol.. Not only that. I read back to back Flex editions a while back. The one study stated they are proponents of red meat for building lean muscle. The next issue they stated red meat was not good for building lean muscle because it contains too much fat... If you are well observant, you can see those magazines constantly contradict themselves.
 
Is that stuff still going on? I haven't read many of the mags since I stopped writing for them 5-6 years ago.

Since there's more advanced info on the internet I have to presume the mags are mostly for kids, people starting out, and/or guys who just like to see pics of freakazoids
 
I fail to see how sites that sell "legal steriods" with claims like this is a very powerful anabolic steriod blah blah blah can continue to sell.... its flase advertisement and lead kids down the wrong path because since they arent real there is no need or mention of pct or supportings sups. So when 16 turns into 18 and they get there hands on legit stuff they end up hurting themselves and then come to ef for us to fix em
 
There was a documentary film (i forget the name) where the guy showed that every muscle magazine published is owned by a major supplement company.
It's like advertising that you pay them for, think about it.
Every time someone buys that magazine, then buys one of those garbage supplement, the company wins twice. You are paying them to advertise nonsense to you! It's absurd! Besides the fact that I've never seen one of those supplements in those mags recommended by anyone here or anywhere for that matter.
The name thing is funny though, they are even coming up with them for the accessory drugs now. I seen 1 in vitamin world just the other day AMIRATRAX or some dumb shit like that, too fn funny.
 
Men's Health is usually an interesting read for me when I'm on a plane. But if you read every issue it comes out to be nearly the same crap regurgitated. I like the CNN style factoids about studies done on different foods and their health benefits.
