Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Mens Health Subscription
Be careful with this company... I recieved a card in the mail for a gift membership to this magazine. I thought it would be a cool gift so I filled the card out as an interested party. They started sending the magazine without recieving any money from me to start the subscription... well after thinking about it I decided not to do it so I did not want to pay for it. They continued to send it I thought in error... Now over a year later they send me a collection letter from a collection compnay for the 19.95 subscription fee. Why would a company send a product before being paid.. to rip off customers. OK magazine but I would not bother with this company ever.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - I didn't like magazines until i picked up a Men's Health
Normally I would never buy a magazine, but one day someone at work brought in a Men's Health and I ended reading it cover to cover. Its filled with little facts and figures guys love to know spread throughout the pages in addition to the main articles, which are great by themselves. If your a man and can read, you will most likely enjoy this magazine.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - RIP-OFF >> BEWARE of publisher RODALE!!!
Aside from the fact that this magazine has very little to do with REAL men, it's publisher, RODALE has treated me very unfairly.
You will get bombarded with glossy junk mail and they will automatically renew your subscription without your approval. If you ignore it, they will have North Shore Agency (collector) send you a collections notice. Think I'm kidding? Just Google it. They do this to everyone.
My wife got me a subscription through her airline miles program. I hated the magazine and never renewed it. Apparently that means little to Rodale. I got a notice from North Shore and challenged them to prove I asked for a renewal. Never heard back. I expect to see this on a TV "rip-off" report soon. You've been warned!!



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Not what I expected.
So I ordered this magazine and for almost a year I've been reading it. I have to admit, it's not entirely what I expected. I've picked up a random issue for review, September 2007 to be exact. So here goes...

The GOOD: The articles in here are well-written for the most part, and many of them are related to actual health. This issue, which features an odd dual-issue format with Jamie Foxx on one cover and Andy Samberg from SNL on the back, has an article about the decline in testosterone (good) and stories about cooking healthier (also good). Some of the ads in this issue are geared toward men too, such as the Ford Super Duty and Jeep ads.

The BAD: In my opinion, there's *way* too much focus on fashion in this magazine. It's bad on normal months, but this issue has a whole section donated to it (the back, upside-down section). They seem to want me to buy a $750.00 pair of ugly Beatles-boots and by far the ugliest watch I've ever seen, the Zenith Defy Xtreme Open for $29,700.00. Not sure who this magazine is catering to but I bought a subscription to learn more about healthy living. There are entire magazines out there devoted to the type of guy who has money to burn and cares so much about a certain image (in otherwords, a poser). I didn't expect it from this magazine. And it's not that I want to tell this magazine what it should or shouldn't be... it's just that I don't want any part of this whole image thing. You can buy some great high-quality and functional men's items without going overboard with materialism, and I don't want a magazine that promotes that.

The UGLY: That Zenith watch takes the cake. Seriously, look it up online. It looks like something from a cereal box. I might wear it if it was free, but I'd have to wear long sleeves to cover it up. A watch shouldn't cost more than a new car. If it does... you're a poser :)

Overall: This magazine has some good fatures but it's too fashion-oriented for my tastes.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great
For extensive work-out tips, I suggest you go get "Exercise&Health"; in my opinion, "Exercise&Health" has the best work-out tips, and the magazine has lots of them! For general health, however, I recommend "Men's Health".

On paper, the Mio DigiWalker P550 looks to be an attractive gadget for the mobile professional, combining the capabilities of a PDA and GPS into one device. However, its poor battery life and subpar navigation skills tell a different story.

Though it won't appeal to the masses quite yet, the Nokia N800 Internet Tablet is a nice, portable device for on-the-go Web browsing, and it has some worthy upgrades.

Though it has a few design and performance glitches, the Sony Ericsson W300i is a quality, basic MP3 cell phone.

Diesel vehicles have nearly a 50-percent market share in Europe, thanks to tax incentives and diesel-friendly legislation across the EU. Diesels are so passé there that you can buy a BMW 730d and no one will think it odd that your luxury car burns oil. Pull up in a diesel 7-Series in America and people would leer at you like you've alighted from an amphibious vehicle reeking of saltwater and dead trout.

But now, thanks to the oft-reported combo of newly-raised CAFE standards, not-so-newly-raised gas prices, and the 50-state diesel engine, GM, Ford, and Chrysler are about to dip more than a hesitant toe into the diesel game. Chrysler offers a diesel in the Grand Cherokee, but soon all three automakers will offer diesels in their best-selling lineups of light trucks -- the Dodge Ram 1500 is expected to offer a 50-state diesel after 2009. Light trucks are being used to lead the charge since those buyers stand to gain the most with the least amount of (perceived) sacrifice.

Diesels currently have 3.2-percent of the American market. Some estimates put them at 15-percent by 2015. That's a huge leap, and diesel still has plenty of hurdles. Diesels will come with a cost premium over gasoline-engined cars. That should be easy enough to conquer -- incentives and some quick cost and longevity calculations should convince people of the benefit. The real hurdle is the nagging issue of perception. The plan will probably be to attack that with a price that makes the proposition unbeatable. Said Chrysler's director of environmental affairs, "If it's priced right, we can sell diesel here. Diesel can give you an immediate poke in fuel economy -- 20 to 40 percent. Not many technologies can deliver that today."
