More fashion and fluff than exercise stuff June 16, 2005 Sugar Plum (Phoenix, AZ USA) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
While I rarely subscribe to magazines, I was looking for something to motivate me to exercise and so I signed up for a one year subscription to Shape. Before and during college I was a ballet dancer, but after entering the real, 9-5 working world half a year ago, exercise time became more difficult to find. Unfortunately, I found that Shape magazine was not really about exercise at all. It was about beauty products, fancy new-age spas and resorts, and trendy workout accessories. I was also shocked by the models on the magazine's covers and pages. Not only were they skinny but they usually sported next to nothing. I finally cancelled my subscription when a magazine came with a woman in a see-through, lacy top on the front of it, visible nipples and all. Workout wear? I think not! Trust me, the woman belonged in a porn magazine, not my exercise magazine!
Not As Informative As It Looks August 3, 2004 Cici (GA) 4 out of 7 found this review helpful
I've subscribed to Shape for the past year in hopes of finding some workouts I can do around the house and health tips. Sadly, most of their workouts need access to gym equipment, which is great for those who do but most don't. The articles also leave less to be desired. Most starting with "According to blah blah blah 78% of women have blah blah blah." I felt like I was reading a very thick survey/statistics overview as opposed to a health magazine. I've gotten more health information from a Seventeen magazine than Shape. If anything else, Shape is one big advertisement for the latest in exercise and beauty supplies. When my subscription ends, I will not miss it. If what you need is at-home-workouts, check out Fitness.
<B>10 YEARS OF SHAPE! October 25, 2004 Stephanie Carlson (Gilbert, AZ USA) 4 out of 7 found this review helpful
I've read Shape magazine for 10 years and still can't get enough of it. How can anybody think this magazine is more shallow than Cosmo! Shape is about Fitness and Health, Cosmo is more into fashion. They don't even compare. I read them both, depending on my mood. To help motivation when I'm in a fitness slump.... SHAPE! It's worth it!
Shape reader for three years January 2, 2004 3 out of 6 found this review helpful
I have been subscribing to Shape for the past three years and thoroughly enjoy the magazine. I have sampled other fitness magazines but none of them have bee nearly as good as Shape. The articles in Shape are always interesting and span a wide variety of topics important to overall health. I highly reccommend this magazine.
Subscriptions are difficult December 12, 2004 Animas (New Mexico) 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
This magazine (Shape) is interesting and has good advice, but their subscription department is really frustrating, and not helpful in solving subscription problems. I only recommend this magazine if you have plenty of time and patience to get your subscription sorted out!
