Why would you “not put much stock” in Playboy? They have an excellent reputation when it comes to journalism and fiction.
Writers like Hunter Thompson, Tom Wolfe, and Norman Mailer have all written for Playboy at times.
Are you assuming that since the magazine shows boobies, they don’t have a fact-checker? What magazines WOULD you “put stock in?”

Understood that Playboy has an excellent reputation and I’m sure that they have a fact checker. But bodybuilding is not where their expertise lies. Have you read the article? The author refers to many of the people that lift as “meatheads” from that point on I was a little off put and decided I would take everything else mentioned in the article with a grain of salt. It seemed apparent to me that whoever was writing the article may have been a bit biased on the subject.
