 Beware of Rodale Books! November 10, 2007

I've enjoyed subscribing to Men's Health magazine in the past but I had to stop to prevent being sold products and renewals without my authorization. Be aware that with your subscription, they will automatically renew your subscription "for your convenience" and bill you accordingly.
Also, I would receive post-card notices in the mail about their latest fitness guide ($28) and how I can "preview" it for 21 days. Of course, I think not and toss the card out. Too bad I didn't pay close enough attention. I have to fill out and send the card back in order to decline. The fitness guide shows up in the mail and I have 21 days to repack it and ship it back. They got me with two of them (I admit, I did fail to get it shipped back before 21 days was up) and, along with the auto-renewal, I had enough and called and told them I didn't want to be a customer anymore. Fine....I thought. It's been four months since my last issue and here I am now with a postcard from Rodale Books about previewing the 2008 Fitness Guide. I guess cancelling my subscription wasn't enough to keep them from auto-selling me stuff.
Can you imagine this new tactic of selling becoming the norm? The retailer gets to choose what we order and it's up to us to decline it. Crazy! If you google for "Rodale return card 14 days" you'll see that there are some who have attempted to sue Rodale over this. Think twice before ordering this magazine and being subjected to the same sales tactics.

If you're looking for a men's magazine that will help to keep you informed on fitness, weight loss, nutrition, sex and style - then this is a magazine you will have an interest in.
The layout is simple, with the most important information highlighted to draw your attention. I have found this magazine to be extremely helpful in keeping myself fit. I find an abundance of useful material each week and there is always a recipe or something that I find myself trying out with each issue. Great stuff.
Barely a "Health" magazine anymore January 12, 2003

I used to enjoy this magazine, but it has gone downhill. Rather than "Health" the magazine's focus has become getting women to bed, sex, and fashion. The title of the magazine should be changed to "Men's Fashion" or "Playboy". If you want a fashion magazine, there is already GQ. The magazine cover usually tries to portray "muscle" type articles, and there are articles on working out, but the focus on "Health" is very limited.
don't be looking here to get healthy... November 20, 2002

Unless being healthy is defined as the most updated clothes and fragrances...Magazine has gone downhill over time to included less and less on working out and eating healthy. For some reason this and other magazines find they need to move into the fashion segment. They should leave that for GQ and focus on their core competencies.
 Perfect For Overweight Guys Who Feel Sexually Insecure November 1, 2001

I have recieved this magazine for free going on a year now. Although I do like some of the articles, I find that it seems to be ironically aimed towards the overweight reader who is experiencing sexual problems. The workouts listed always tell a person how to "slim down" or "get rid of that gut". Personally, I'm 18 and not fat, so it's quite hard to find any workouts geared for me. As to the second part of my argument, I don't see why they feel a need to include sexual topics in the magazine, but if they must, they needn't go as far as they do. Call me old fashioned, but I think that health magazines should be about getting healthy and staying there, not old fat guys who have lost their stamina.
