Oxygen, absolutely. Do NOT get Fitness Rx! They are way too blatant about pushing their sponsors' supplements- it makes me think everything in their magazine is suspect, as well as poorly written. And I know whereof I speak- I was given a subscription to it, so have a lot of their issues.
But really? As someone who has about 6 fitness magazine subscriptions, if you really want the info in the mags, go to their websites. But if you don't really need the info, spend the time working out instead of reading.

I love both Oxygen (monthly) and Muscle & Fitness Hers (bi-monthly).

I agree with you on Shape & Fitness - don't waste your money! I really enjoy Muscle & Fitness Hers. I've learned a lot of helpful diet information and their training tips are great.

I respectfully disagree with the negative review of Fitness Rx.
I have cancelled ALL of my other fitness magazines (Shape, Fitness, Women's Health, Oxygen, and a couple others I can't recall right now. I've gone from 6 to 1!)) and only get Fitness RX. It has all the info the others contain in a much easier (for me) to read presentation.
As far as promoting supplements or whatever, I find Oxygen, Muscle & Fitness hers contain just as many ads/articles as Fitness RX. They all have to pay for the publication somehow and unfortunately advertisements are the main source of income!

ITA! I still subscribe to Oxygen and M&F Hers and enjoy them very much. However, as a personal trainer, OnFitness is by far the standard for research without all of the ads/marketing.
