These two options are examples of quick fix problem solving. They offer the reader quick ways to solve some of life’s biggest and most asked about problems. “BUILD WEALTH FAST!” The magazine uses monosyllables for these tag lines to make the tag lines as simple as the problem fix they are advertising. From the titles been quick and simple to understand the average reader of Men's Health may be lead to beleive that the task being talked about is just as simple, making him want to try it for himself. Analysing the whole cover you can see that most, if not all of the tag lines are quick fix problems. They are mainly in large-ish text that will catch the eyes of readers and use motivational quick sounding words such as "Instantly", "easy" and "fast" Once again this will cause the reader to want to try these methods as they will think it will give maximum results with minimum effort.
Male narcissism
From a narcissism point of view David Beckham could be seen a role model to many of the male readers. They will see his body on the front cover and then look at the tag lines also included on the front cover and think by using these problem fixes they could possible one day resemble David Beckham.
