Muscle Media Magazine

Pros: Good reinforcement if you are a serious Fit-for-lifer
Cons: Shameless $5 advertisement for Myoplex supplements

I have been on a free weight kick lately. Maybe it’s because I am getting closer to the big 3-0, but suddenly the subtle toning effects of nautilus are no longer good enough. Before I merely wanted to look like Xena, warrior princess, but now I want to...

Pros: easy to understand, natural bodybuilders
Cons: not enough info on professional bodybuilding

Intro

Fitness expert Bill Phillips, owner of EAS Supplement Company, was fed up with magazines loaded with anabolic steroid users and no "real-person" articles. Thus, he developed Muscle Media, a magazine for the common bodybuilder...

Pros: MOTIVATION MAGNET
Cons: Could have some better exercise routine how-to's.

I have often read Bill Phillips' MUSCLE MEDIA magazine and have been well pleased.

Bill Phillips is apparently a man of thoughts and a man of action and determination and he is not just bringing these ideas to his magazine, but to the hearts...

Pros: Great for anyone that wants to read endlessly about the Champs.
Cons: Contradicting, Full of Advertisements, Lacking in content

I have been a subscriber to Muscle Media for quite sometime now. It pains me to see the drastic turn for the worst that they have taken over the past year. There are so many contradictions throughout, you wonder how do they expect anyone to keep on...

Pros: Great motivator. Has info for normal people who want to get healthy without steroids!
Cons: Has been getting smaller lately. Bill Phillips, publisher, resigned his position recently.

I'm an avid reader of the magazine, and have outlined it in this review. Bill Phillips, the president and founder of EAS, and author of the best seller Body-for-LIFE, stared this magazine not too long ago. He recently resigned his position as...

Pros: Motivation for those who can't motivate themselves
Cons: A two hundred page advertisement for EAS products.

I have been an avid read of Muscle Media since it's inception, and up till recently I would have fought to the death anyone who said anything bad about MM2K. But I am sorry Bill, (Bill Phillips is the editor, and founder of the magazine.)you sold us out...

Pros: An effective way of showing results
Cons: requires dedication and maturity

If you would like a long and detailed describtion on how to gain muscle, please read my other article posted. Ignore the fact that is says not recommended because there was contraversy over it. I, without knowing, broke an epinions law and people didn't...

Pros: solid information, contests, free information
Cons: only published 8 times a year

Muscle Media is a body building magazine written for ordinary people. The pictures are people with real, attainable, bodies, not the "freaky" mountains of mass pictured in some magazines. I look forward to each issue I receive. My favorite...

Pros: Best fitness information to date
Cons: Your shirt won't fit anymore

This magazine is by far the Best in the overpopulated slew of muscle mags. There is so much top rate information in every issue concerning training, nutrition, fat loss, muscle gain, and supplementation that you'll keep reading it over and over...

Pros: information-packed, straightforward, honest, tell-it-as-it-is approach
Cons: not enough magazines are issued throughout the year

For those who want a straight forward, tell it as it is writing style, Muscle Media is the only fitness and nutrition magazine they'll need. Spearheaded by Bill Phillips, this magazine is completely thorough in informational articles and workout plans....

Pros: Lots of information
Cons: Only 8 issues per year

If you're trying to get in shape and stay there, Muscle Media is just the tool to help you. It has phenomenal workout routines for improved results, supplement and diet research data, motivational articles by regular people who changed their physiques...

Pros: Provides a great mix of good advice and motivation to "average" people.
Cons: Over-hypes its own products, but seems to be getting better in that regard.

I've followed this magazine from its early days as a hard-core body building mag to a broad-based publication aimed at a broader audience. They turned over direction to a NYC PR outfit that went too far in commercializing it. Now, in the spring of...

Pros: Common Sense, Real People, fewer ads
Cons: Not a monthly publication

Muscle Media magazine is brainchild of Bill Phillips, a motivational bodybuilder unlike any other.
His magazine deals mostly with the average person, and how they change their lives through nutrition, exercise and bodybuilding - not the huge...

Pros: Some good articles
Cons: Not as good as it used to be...too Mainstream (like Men's Health)

Muscle Media was one of the TOP HARDCORE bodybuilding magazines just a few short years ago. Pictures of the massive physiques that turn heads and drop jaws adorned the pages, articles about steroids and how the professionals used them were a hot spot,...

Pros: We can discover why www.t-mag.com is a "resurrection" of the old Muscle Media
Cons: Family oriented, rinky-dink models

Anyone who has followed the legacy of Muscle Media Magazine(formerly known as Muscle Media 2000) knows that it has now become a watered-down, family oriented, mainstream magazine. Before Bill Phillips (who is no longer involved with EAS or Muscle Media)...
