Other PL mags in the USA have come and gone, often in the middle of your paid subscription, btw.

PL USA has been around since the mid-late 1970's.

Almost forgot about those boogers . . . . ordered a 3 yr subscription instead of a one year (I was gonna be reading for many years anyway) so I could get the free tee shirt.

The tee arrived, it was the fine quality type where you could lay it over a vitamin jar and still read the list of ingredients with one eye tied behind your back, got about 6 issues and then the mag vanished.

Got an email from him afterwards offering leftover clothing from their store as a compensation, I replied with my choice, he never responded. Just glanced at a backcopy, I'm talking about MM outta Idaho, that the one you mean?



The Milo I am thinking about is from the same Iron Mind guy who offers the Captains of Crush grippers, no? Haven't looked at that in a while, used to be a great little "underground" mag, but it mixes other strength sports with PL, in case the poster above is solely interested in PL. Was frustrating to me in that I liked it but it was a quarterly, wasn't it? When I really like a mag I hate waiting 3 months between issues, but flipping through a stack of Milo back copies is a great way to spend a day.

Meanwhile PLUSA has been like the Energizer Bunny for 30 or so years . . . . .

powerliftingusa if you want only p lifting,good mag but mostly filled with meet numbers and stats. milo is def the best mag around for all strength sports coverage and awsome articles, you only get 4 a year tho, but imo its worth the price and the wait.

well i used to get PLusa, had high hopes of getting into PL but turns out i suck at benching and am not cut out for the training PL requires. milo is more my thing(grip,oly lifts,mma,conditioning etc.) so....ya,
