I've been a reader of Women's Health (1-year) off and on for many years and have given some thought as to the best way to characterize the magazine for potential buyers. Here's essentially what you get in every issue of the mag:
-updated and interesting FITNESS information
-WEIGHT LOSS information/tips
-HEALTH information pertaining to women
-NUTRITION information for better health
-information on having a better SEX life
Note that some of the words are captialized. Well, they represent the main topics that you'll be reading about in this magazine. So, if you're looking for the latest info on any of these kinds of topics, it's worth your time to check it out. Also recommend The 5-Minute Plantar Fasciitis Solution for women suffering from plantar fasciitis.

I had read Men's Health in the doctor's office once in a while, and it seemed like a fairly decent magazine, so when I heard about this magazine, I thought I'd try it.
It's okay. It's not great. It's not horrible. It's actually kind of fun to read. BUt, it's not really great and it's not so informative. It's just like every other magazine out there that's adequate. It has a few more diet and fitness tips, but really nothing I use. It's not new information that I haven't read before. And, there are some really stupid monthly features.
All in all, it's "fun", but I wouldn't resubscribe.

Unlike many female oriented magazines this one has some fine advice on health, fitness & exercise. You won't find destructive over the top dieting tips that could get make you very ill & it is not overloaded with ads like "Oxygen, Shape, & Self." For those of us who want overall fitness, cross training, interesting recipes, & new outdoor activities to try this magazine is the best one out there. Even for all of us middle aged gals trying to get back some of our youthful health & appearance. Also, if you are into weight training, I would try a muscle magazine for that. WH is not that big on that subject. The main negative is some of the departments keep changing their formats & some articles can be as little as one paragraph. But, on the whole it still is better than its competitors.

I have to agree with others here who said that MEN'S HEALTH is a far superior publication. I have been really frustrated by the average articles and flatline levels of inspiration in this magazine. The sad thing? I devour MEN'S HEALTH whenever it arrives and that's the reason I subscribed to this one. Why the women's version doesn't even follow the celebrity prototype of the brother magazine, I don't know. It always inspires me so much to read what those in Hollywood have to do to train for their roles. Not because I'm a Hollywood junkie, but rather so often we all sit there in our chair and think that actors make being fit look so easy. When you really read about what their fitness levels require in terms of effort, I find it inspiring.
Blah, boring, and just not worth it, sad to say. But run don't walk for MEN'S HEALTH.
You're better off with Men's Health!!!! February 5, 2007

My boyfriend ordered subscriptions to Men's and Women's health (for himself and for me, respectively) about six months ago. It didn't take me too long to figure out that women's health could be more aptly titled "men's health lite" - - i.e., a similar magazine with significant alterations (read: reductions) in reading level, scientific basis, and practicality.
The editors of these magazines seem to think that men seek scientifically-sound, medically proven facts for nutrition and exercise physiology, while women are looking for cheesy motivation and advice about lipstick colors.
If you want fluff, you might as well save the money and buy one of the less expensive women's 'health' mags (Self, Fitness, etc.); if you want more substantial content, try Men's Health. (Which niche Women's Health fulfills, then, seems unclear.)
