hmm. mixed feelings on the High Fashion-ization of Fitness magazines.
i used to subscribes to SELF in the early to mid 2000s as a reprieve from all those unwearable and ridiculously priced designer garbs and not mention to alternative body ideals.. and don't even get me started on high fashion "sporty/athletic" themed editorials completely devoid of functionality or practicality...
I will for sure have to check out this issue to see if SELF is able to maintain a balance between showing us high fashion industry models whose body ideals are historically dictated by thinness and workout enthusiasts and athletes who come in different shapes, sizes and heights driven by fitness.
