Women's Health
[{'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on April 7, 2019', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-2 review-rating', 'review_body': "thought this product would be comparable to men's health, it's not. my wife throws these away after about an hour because of their boring and useless content. 99% sure they lost her as a reader when they started talking about the best makeup for the gym. she wants to be healthy and find good diet and exercise advice, not fashion and gossip; pretty sure that's why Star and Enquirer are in publication. Now we just share my men's health subscription since it is more geared towards fitness and nutrition."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on January 9, 2019', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "It's full of health, diet, fitness, and inspiring articles. My first issue was 142 pages of wonderfully educational and motivating articles with clear pictures. It's easy to highlight the articles to read. This magazine is ideal for people that are interested in women's health covering all kinds of topics ranging from nutrition to working out and from meditating to parenting. It also includes ads for the latest in skincare products, makeup, gear, and food, which I like so that I know what to shop for. When I need motivated and inspired or need to refocus, this is the magazine I choose!"}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on June 22, 2019', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': "This magazine is not the female counterpart to Mens Health. For one thing, it has far less content. For another, that content tends to focus on looks over health. Buy Mens Health. It's a much better magazine for health tips AND will give you insights into the way men think. As for workout routines, you can look elsewhere for those."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on February 10, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-2 review-rating', 'review_body': "I was expecting a magazine about, you guessed it, women's health. Instead I've got a lot of advertising, and opinions not labeled as advertising that are in fact inaccurate paid ads. Very disappointed."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on January 27, 2020', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': 'Too many makeup, other non-health articles and airbrushed models\n2/14/20...canceled this right after receiving my first issue. It\'s nothing more than a bad cross between Cosmopolitan and Shape. It is NOT, in ANY way, a women\'s version of Mens Health. I wanted to vomit when I saw the cover blurb for "gym makeup"'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on April 6, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-2 review-rating', 'review_body': "I have no clue why I purchased this magazine. I was very disappointed in the content. It's more like the Cosmopolitan magazine, which I also do not like."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on August 11, 2015', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': "If you are over the age of 50 (heck - even 40 and possibly 30) then this is not the magazine for you. Show me real female athletes of all ages and include more serious articles on women's issues. The final straw was seeing a Kardashian on the cover. No thanks. I felt like this was Cosmopolitan magazine and Entertainment Tonight wrapped in spandex. Going back to Runner's World and Prevention."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on February 13, 2014', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-2 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I subscribed to this magazine thinking it would be about health, fitness, and above all, working out. The headlines on the cover seemed to suggest that was true, with the biggest fonts advertising things like "flat abs now" and "maximize your workout". In reality, the content of the magazine is mostly beauty (how that counts as "health" is beyond me) and weight-loss. Oh, the endless, endless articles about "burn more fat!" "three new foods that will help you burn fat!" "drop pounds with this easy exercise!" I don\'t need to lose weight and I found that these articles just played into my growing impression, as issue after issue dropped on my doormat, that the magazine views women as vapid, stereotypical beings whose only desire is to look good, whether through exercise (almost inevitably restricted to cardio and yoga), the "right" work-out clothes (really?) or knowing what dress is in fashion or what color make-up to buy. If you enjoy that sort of thing, that\'s fine- it is essentially one step above Cosmopolitan on the seriousness scale. If you\'re looking for actual information about working out and building muscle, know that Women\'s Health magazine is barely aware that these things exist, and when it does, it will come wrapped in the form of "ten minutes a day to tone your bum like a super-model!" or something equally cringe-inducing.\n\nFrankly, looking around, it seems your choice is either a magazine that barely addresses fitness, or going straight to the hardcore muscle-building mags. I was hoping for something reasonably in-between with Women\'s Health, but failed to find it. If someone knows of such a magazine, I\'d be interested to hear it (I tried Women\'s Fitness, which suffers from the same problems as Women\'s Health). The good news is that my subscription to Women\'s Health seemed to get me a good price on Men\'s Health, which I am switching over to because some reviewers recommended it for those disappointed with the content of WH. I\'ll see how that works out.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on November 25, 2020', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I love this magazine!! It has high quality articles that are intelligent, educational, and informational. I like the products they recommend. I love that there are Black women all through it, not just one somewhere to check that box. Really an inspiring magazine. Keep up the good work!!'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on January 31, 2022', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I like this magazine as it is full of information on staying healthy and fit.'}]
