bodybuilding mags really for half naked chicks?

Ok after seeing another message board this brought up a good point. Personnally, I don't think bodybuilding mags like FLEX and MuslceMag should waist pages on chicks half naked posing in bras and nighties. I mean they are bodybuilding mags.. I say if you want that stuff go buy a PLayboy. Hey I love a half naked gal just as much as the next guy but I don't blow $6.00 an issue for a bodybuilding mag to see that sheeit. Once a year like Sport Illustrated does is ok but every month? I'd rather see the female bodybuilders shown in the same light as the their male counterparts including articles written by them on training,nutrition etc. Those mags should be promoting the topic that their magazine names So boldly are named. FLEX MUSCLEmag MuscleMedia Ironman. I see those names I think of monsters and monster workouts. Not some plastic tittied bot chick that could not walk on a bodybuilding stage. Well thats my opinion. I say keep the bimbos and give me the muscle.
Muscle & Fitness is by my opinion the best mag out there.

i think they do cause if you buy the bodybuiling magazine with the girl in the thong on the front you don't look gay. But you would with some guy with posing tights on the front

Not if your 220 and look like you workout.
But if you walk in with short shorts and clogs. then I see your point

Flex is full of articles of guys that are so juiced up they can't see straight, and don't even do the workouts they promote. Half of it, and all bodybuilding mags, is of Muscletech commercials. I get so sick of the muscletech commercials.

I'd prefer to see women in their workout element....wearing the workout clothes and pumping iron. I read fitness mags to keep myself motivated, not to look at skinny girls in thongs. But the reality is that those kinds of pictures sell the magazines to men. Cripes, Mountain Bike magazine recently featured Playboy models posing in front of bikes and stuff. So it's not just bodybuilding mags that do this.

I could tolerate those mags more if they would leave out the MuscleCrap ads.......Personally I read Cigar Aficianado, and couple of Harley type bike rags..........

Musclecrap LOL
you mean nitrotech won't get me jacked??!!! Do I have to take celltech w/ it? Or hydroxycut??

But then again, I guess the answers are all in the 6 page ad.

Fuqqers, when it comes to buying musclemags, I have not (in a long time) and will not again.



- "If I ever run into Dave Grohl, I'm gonna kick his fuqqin' ass... because he sucks and he wrote this cheese-dick song for Ozzy that I have to fuqqin' play on and I'll never forgive him for that. Foo Fighters is a fuqqin' candy-ass girl band but you've got that mother-fuqqer submitting songs [for the album], and those douchebags from the Offspring, too."
"...Dave Grohl? Fuq Dave Grohl! ...you're getting this guy to write songs for Ozzy? Just because he played drums for fuqqing Sh!tvana?"

Speaking of fitness ads, who the hell is this guy, and why can't I get away from him!? His damn picture is everywhere in those magazines!! The dude's pushing Otomix, Hydroxycut, and cutting gel, to name a few.

Yeh, and he looks like a fat slob off the street. That just had a 12 pack and a bag of pork rinds.

Nothing is wrong with Pork rinds......just can't eat a whole bag in one setting........... But seriously, I bet Lee Preist takes a can of Cheeze Whiz and squirts it directly into his mouth and washes it down with a 2-liter of Mountian Dew.

I used to buy Musclemag all the time, the it dawned on me that every 'amazing new arm workout' or some crpa like that was just trying hard in the gym and taking celltech as I will gain 8 pounds in a week and look like Cragi Kovaks in less than 2 years. After wasting a lot of money on magazines that basically told me to go the gym and take a certain product I decided to skip out on the mags.

Ok going back to the original question...

Need I say more?
Look at car ads.
But I agree with what you're saying Fire,look at Mountain Bike mag,one time they had an article on a playmate that rode MTB,that she was a bank manager,blah,blah,blah...

Don't you guys know they put the naked women in them to get the testosterone levels up?
Those mags are a valuable training tool, nothing more.
