Cover is trashy, and the articles are fluff. I'm looking for real people with real bodIes.

really would like to see real pictures and ppl

I enjoyed reading, and looking at pictures of excersises. Very well put together.

I don't like that EVERY cover looks more scantly clad than the one before. I think Victoria Secret when I see this...kind of disappointed it is more about sex than SHAPE

Shape isn't the best women's fitness magazine out there, but is a solid choice for a good price. I would recommend it for the variety alone!

fun work-outs

I loved this magazine when I was younger and childless. I feel like it is geared towards single, naturally thin, childless women. Now that I have an infant the "toning" workouts aren't adequate or realistic for me anymore, I need more cardio tips and motivation now. I still enjoy the recipes, although I do have to tailor them or "doctor" them because I can't find certain ingredients. I no longer subscribe, but I will occasionally read an article online.

Love the ideas although I feel like sometimes the fitness is geared to people in better shape than me. Would love to see more articles on beginning fitness and how to increase my level of fitness.

Shape used to be more about healthy living, now it's leaning towards a Cosmo-type magazine.

I love this magazine. It has great inspiring content, good exercising tips and techniques, weather friendly fashion and good celebrities. I am also happy that SHAPE published my letter to them praising them.

Good magazine overall, a lot of good tips on how to be and stay healthy

This is my go to magazine to stay in shape. Has great recipes and I always find a new exercise to try.

I subscribe and enjoy this magazine, especially the reader success stories. This magazine is very motivating and has lots of workout options illustrated every month. I eat whole, unprocessed foods, no dairy and no refined sugars, and I find the recipes hit or miss. The articles are also hit and miss, but every month I find some articles that interest me or apply to me and it is worth the price of subscribing.

I like Shape because it doesn't just focus on workout routines. I don't really workout that much, but I still enjoy reading for the healthy eating tips.

Very insprining. I love the personal success stories!
