Jon Lipsey & Joe Warner (http://ironlifemag.com/) left a couple of cush gigs at Men’s FItness Magazine UK, at the height of taking the magazine to its best publication years in history, only to start from square one with their own “digital-only” fitness publication.
What would prompt these guys to make such a ballsy move, with no guarantees in an industry over-saturated with many well-known fitness magazines in print version, in order to make a name for themselves in a still relatively new world of digital-only magazine publications?
Both Jon & Joe share how they plan to give the finger to the old way of publishing successful fitness magazines, and help pioneer the movement to take the fitness publishing industry forward and make their platform more accessible to the most popular technological mediums utilized today.
