I submitted it as a person in fairly decent shape that wants to take it to the next level and really push to see what can be accomplished. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Toro 1 Posted May 30, 2007 They want fatties with a story to tell. You have no chance. Sorry. That's what I figured. But also, most people who take the time to read Men's Health aren't fatties. They are mostly guys that are in decent shape. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KSB2424 3,085 Posted May 30, 2007 I always wondered why Men's Health has sweaty, shirtless men on the cover. Yes, I realize it is a health magazine for guys, but seriously, couldn't we put a chick on the cover or at least have the dude not in some suggestive pose like it is focking playgirl?

It's no worse than the other men's workout magazines. I don't really look at the guys on the cover as being suggestive. :freud: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NewbieJr 540 Posted May 30, 2007 I get Men's Health delivered to my house each month. I saw this contest and, for the first time, wished I wasn't already perfect. The contest sounded like fun. I always wondered why Men's Health has sweaty, shirtless men on the cover. Yes, I realize it is a health magazine for guys, but seriously, couldn't we put a chick on the cover or at least have the dude not in some suggestive pose like it is focking playgirl? Well, women's magazines like Elle, Cosmo Girl, ect. have pretty women on them, not men. I think that Men's Health wants to be considered a serious fitness, nutritional, good lifestyle magazine for men. It's not trying to compete with the Maxim, FHM-type magazines.

I think they show the dudes to say, "See you piece of sh!t? This is what you could look like if you made more of an effort." Not gay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't have a problem with it, it just seems a tad bit odd to me. I would think a magazine marketed to men would want something to attract men at a newstand, as the subscribers already know what it is about. You can have a serious mens health magazine without some Lou Ferrigno look-a-like in nothing but some short shorts on the cover. That is all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I dunno, I would think more readers of Men's Health are like you (a little out of shape, would like to look like the guy on the cover) than like 400 pound fatties.
