No way. Bob Hoffman was a virulent homophobe and was always railing against the "sissification" of bodybuilding. He was focused on Olympic weightlifting and hated the fact that he had to have physique pictures to sell magazines. That is why Muscular Development spun off. You're thinking of Robert Kennedy's Muscle Mag International which had some nude photos in the first few issues and then stopped.
Jim Haislop - dang.....
wasn't there was a short period when they experimented with nude pix?- I think right after Playgirl came out - think Haislop was one of them - and ya had to love the gospel according to Bob Hoffman
