I had never even heard of Shape magazine up until about one year or so ago. I was surfing the 'net, looking for health and fitness web sites to get some tips on how to get in shape and on one of those web sites there was a wonderful deal where I could get a years subscription of Shape for free.

Way back I wrote a review on Self Magazine and ended with these words, ?Just realize that what you are reading in Self this month will be in Fitness next and was probably in Shape the month before.?

Having recently reviewed Fitness and now Shape I am more convinced of that than ever. On... Read full review »

SHAPE
Magazine review

What?s a man doing reading a women?s fitness magazine? Okay, let me explain, after reading a few of SHAPE magazines while riding the exercise bike at the gym I decided to rate this magazine. Despite a few odd looks and dull jokes peddling the bike, I read this... Read full review »

Pros Informative, nicely designed
Cons Too many ads
Recommended it? Yes

I have been receiving Shape magazine for almost a year at this point, and I am still enjoying every issue.


Magazine Organization

Shape is logically organized, which adds greatly to the magazine's appeal for me. I really hate it when I have to search through page after page... Read full review »

You actually get half a magazine when you purchase Shape.

bySusie-34668 Apr 3, 2002

Pros Has some interesting articles.
Cons Out of 214 pages, 107 were full page advertisements.
Recommended it? No

It is my honest opinion that no one should have to pay $3.99 U.S. or $4.99 Canadian for exactly half a magazine. I realize in this day and age we are governed by advertisers, but I hate to have it in my face all the time.

I had thousands of frequent flier miles with several airlines. Not... Read full review »

Pros motivating!
Cons none
Recommended it? Yes

I have been reading Shape magazine for many years and love
what it has to offer. I do believe if I was a major fitness
buff, Shape would not be a good magazine to help me achieve
my goals. But since I enjoy light exercise and keeping
healthy, Shape is a quality publication that... Read full review »

When my mother in law asked me several years ago, which magazine I would like to get a subscription to, I immediately said "Shape Magazine". I was a casual reader of Shape Magazine for several years, picking it up at the grocery store or reading while on the bike at the gym. My mother in law has... Read full review »

SHAPE. Isn?t that what everyone strives for these days? To be in shape? To loose a few pounds here and there? Some people have set this mentality that being is shape is the answer to their every question in life. What is the deal with those people that spend 2 hours in the gym each day? Who has...

Pros A good "general" magazine about health and fitness.
Cons Articles are kind of powder-puff content, but entertaining.
Recommended it? Yes

Too Many Ads! Whew! Now that I?ve stated my first impression of this (and many others) magazine, I feel better. And, I didn?t have to do any exercise to feel that way. Well, to get the blood pumping probably required some cardio-vascular exercise but the exercise didn?t build up a sweat. Great... Read full review »
