Muscular Development has changed its name. The new name is All Natural Muscular Development, with the All Natural in smaller letters. It is part of the magazine's new outlook on natural bodybuilding, and to shy away from the hardcore look. This month's fitness model on the cover is Theresa Hessler, the Jan Tana Fitness Champion. Other interesting articles is one about Jack LaLanne (the godfather of fitness), and a new study on NAC (supposedly builds muscle mass).

Muscular Development, by Twinlab, is another serious bodybuilder magazine, but also covers fitness and health related items. They pride themselves on giving its readers extensive coverage on the cutting edge of training, diet and nutrition articles. It also has great pictures of bodybuilders, and makes for enjoyable reading.
