Best Fitness Magazine ???

Can anyone recommend a great fitness magazine? There are just so many on the market. I am interested in weight training and cardio to get the leanest, buffest body, yet I'm not interested in bodybuilding comps or figure comps, but just getting that lean, buff look, the right nutrition, the whole works. I've been working out for some time but want to get to that next level.

What would you recommend ?

Thanks ahead of time!

^ better than any magazine that ever has been, is, or will be in existence. Also, it's free. And doesn't waste paper. :)

Get comfortable, browse to the articles section and get your goodness on. <3

Recommend, in this order:

7 habits of highly effective nutrition
Lean eatin' I
Lean eatin' II

Then google "westside for skinny bastards iii". Ok, go!
 
But I need something I can read while on the toilet, in the airport, on a plane, in the dentist's waiting room, and while warming up on the stationary bike or treadmill, etc.
 
Come on, LV, you don't think it's far more convenient to just grab a magazine and go out the door? Yes, I have a printer. The damn thing takes one minute to print one page, and because it makes the computer shake a little when it prints, I can't work on the computer while it prints because viewing a tremoring computer screen is hard on the eyes. Ink is expensive. Print something off the web and half the ink prints all the ads that go with the article. Do you really think it's practical for me to, upon realizing I have to use the bathroom for a while, to instead of grabbing a magazine and doing my business, sit at the computer first and hunt fitness web sites for pages to print??? If you don't have a magazine to recommend, don't post a response.

I get you on the "things to read random places". I kind of grab whichever ones I feel I haven't seen in awhile. There isn't really a "best" one as far as I can tell so far, they're just different. I like to read Shape, Women's Health, Muscle and Fitness "Hers", and Natural Health mostly, but really most any of them will have some good things, some useless things, and a lot of ads. Its just the nature of magazines.
 
Wellll,... no really, I honestly feel that the weight workouts are more effective. I always buy the mens fitness over women. I'm all set with hair and makeup ads (ha-ha). I mean I know I'll never lift as much as those guys can but the workouts are very good. But I'm also used to working out with guys so maybe that's why I feel that way. I'm sure their is also good workout advice in the womens mags but....
 
I'm with you, tracyclang. I far prefer the men's fitness mags.

The women's mags never seem to have any useful information for me. They're too fluffy.
 
The Master Blaster Joe Weider

Seven magazines comprise Weider Publications. Muscle & Fitness, Flex, Muscle & Fitness Hers and Men's Fitness make up the Weider Enthusiast Group, with a total readership over 15 million. Shape, Fit Pregnancy and Natural Health make up the Weider Active Lifestyle Group. These titles have a readership in excess of 8 million.

Cut and Paste gotta love it!

Joe Weider is probably one of the most famous people in fitness that creates reading material for people like us. I highly recommend any of these magazines, they have some very effective workouts, accurate articles written by people with loads of actual experience in the fitness world, and you can find most of them on any magazine rack. As for some of the other "bodybuilding" mags....... I've seen a few that appeared impressive but had some sketchy advice.. I stick to these ones, good luck.

I agree with you there, they were giving away Womens Fitness magazine at my gym so I picked a copy up for my girlfriend and it was a pile of ****e. It just focused on 'toning', yoga, pilates and lots of upper body arm exercises (all done on one leg of course). And all the nutrition info was focused on cutting fats out of your diet

Most women I know also prefer to read mens lifestyle magazines over womens as well

Mens Fitness? That's just as bad as Mens Health isn't it? Packed full of 'Get big biceps in 20 days' and '5 foods for killer abs' but never anything about brutal training methods that actually gain muscle.

Or is Mens Fitness different in the US?

I read an interview in a UK paper with the former editor of Mens Health and he said in it that fitness was more or less a disguise for the mag and it was more soft core erotica for gay and closeted men. They try and come up with filler (or articles as they call them) to fit around the pictures of men in underwear
 
mens health is a good one
