Muscle Media 2000 and Bill Phillips

I thought it was 10. Isn't this the one where the guy from NYC failed the lie detector test regarding the use of steroids but was let back in?

Thats the one, i didn't realize it was 10. i'll have to go back and look.

I remember they offered a life time subscript to the mag for like $250. Sure am glad I didn't go for it the mag turned to shit and then stopped printing!!

That sounds just a bit too much like getting married to me.

Can't say that I blame ol' Billy for selling EAS back in 1999. He sold 65% of the company for $245 million!!! Yes...that's NOT a typo...$245 million. That's some serious "big pimpin!"

Haha! I fell for that, and bought the lifetime subscription, and received the magazine for several years as it slowly declined (I was also an early reader and Met-Rx user back in hte days when it came in two containers, one with a red lid and one with a black lid). Muscle Media is what got me into body building in the early 90's and I have to say it shaped who I am to this day.

Thankfully when they discontinued the magazine, they gave all lifetime subscribers a voucher for $100 worth of EAS products. So my several years of issues only cost $150.

Bill actually started his writing by penning the famous "Anabolic Reference Guide", he had a news letter that he used to send out and sell all the new supplements of the time. He was the first one to talk about Creatine and I bought some off of him before anyone I knew ever heard of it. Then about a year or two later he turned his news letter into the Magazine MM2K. The rest is advertising history.
