With so many sources of health information out there, it's great to find a single magazine devoted to collating, simplifying, and explaining it all. Fitness is a woman-oriented magazine that presents a practical and realistic guide to maintaining a lifestyle that's healthy for the body, mind, and spirit, complete with everything from exercise and dieting tips to advice on beating stress and building confidence in bed. Each issue contains helpful information such as pointers on beautifying oneself naturally, reviews of health and beauty products, and strategies and recipes for eating smart, getting the proper workout, and keeping your life in balance, both physically and emotionally.

Fitness magazine is the authority for women who want to lead an active, healthy lifestyle. Fitness inspires women with personalized workout guides, timely health & nutrition advice, and beauty & style tips to achieve balance in mind, body and spirit.

Buyer's Review :I LOVE this magazine; it's definitely my favorite out of all the ones I subscribe to. I subscribe to Health, Shape, and Self magazine, but this one just takes the prize. They always have interesting articles, I love their I Did It! section, the layouts, everything. I'm always worried they'll run out of ideas but every month it's always something new. I like saving to read it because if I read it too fast then I won't be able to enjoy this magazine! I recommend it for anyone and everyone!!

Buyer's Review :I love how this magazine gives me great inspiring fitness information, healthy recipes as well as information on new beauty products that are available to try. I always feel inspired after I have finished reading this magazine. 

Buyer's Review :I just received my first issue and it came in a timely manner. This is my first time getting Fitness so I will have to see if I like the future issues but for the price I couldn't beat it! I am a diabetic and always watching what I eat and striving to get in better shape so I hope this will give me some good hints and ideas! 

Buyer's Review :I love this magazine and I am happy that I bought a subscription. Each issue has great workouts, and health information. There is a lot of ads, but that is every magazine. overall I would recommend it to anyone who likes working out and being healthy. 

Buyer's Review :Fitness Magazine features real models (not too much photo-shopping for both body and face), great recipes, and lots of psychological techniques (e.g., pre-mack principle) to help you stay on-track for dieting/eating healthy. Of course, there are some generic tips, but overall, you'll get the bang for your buck! 

Buyer's Review :Fitness magazine is aimed at women who are interested in living a healthy life. Yes, some of it is a bit "fluffy" - like listing reasons to exercise. They also mix in practical advice - how to exercise to get a flatter stomach, to get stronger legs.

There are interviews with inspiring women of all ages, letting you learn what their tricks to stay motivated and active are. There are healthy recipes so that you can always jazz your menu up with something new and delicious.

On the downside, some articles seem fluffy to the point of incorrect.. In a recent issue they have an article picking on various diets including vegetarian, vegan and low carb. Talk about a way to not make friends!

Apparently vegetarians are "weakening their immune system", and vegans are depressed. The article makes giant assumptions that everybody one one of these diets is doing it incredibly poorly and is therefore suffering from a variety of nutrition-related maladies.

Along the same lines, the article claims low carb "doesn't provide enough fiber" - when really low carb is about cutting out SUGAR. There's no fiber in sugar!! Low carb is about eating a lot of broccoli and fiber-rich vegetables - most people on low carb eat far more veggies than people on a "typical American menu". The article's "fix"? "Eat good-for-you carbs". Isn't that exactly what low carb is? Eating the good carbs - avoiding the sugary carbs?

It was frustrating reading good "here is how to exercise to do X" articles alongside "vegetarians aren't getting enough key nutrients - such as iron, which afects energy levels and the ability to think clearly."

I found the inclusion of numerous fashion articles a bit suspect. I don't want or need a healthy fitness magazine to tell me which jeans to buy. I also wondered why a magazine which promoted healthy body image and living would include a promotion (an article, not an ad) for a $90 eye cream. I'm not sure most of us would find that either in our price range or a worthwhile expenditure of cash.

In the end, there really aren't that many options out there for a woman who wants to stay in shape. I would get this for its new exercise ideas and to scan the recipes - but take any other content with a grain of salt.
