When it comes to sporting news and updates many might think they can just follow a Twitter account or check in on Sky Sports News to stay in the know when it comes to their favourite sports team or sport in general.

But what they don’t realise is that a magazine offers so much more than the facts; it provides insight, in depth interviews with famous sport stars and tips and tricks that they might have never realised existed. They’re also great when it comes to great men’s gift ideas for those guys who have everything - you might want to bear that in mind when your Dad’s birthday rolls round. If you’re a sporty guy, here are five must read magazines out there that you should be subscribing to today:

Runner’s World

For those of us who love to pull on our running shoes and head out to pound the pavement Runner’s World is the prefect companion. Aimed at runners of all levels, it’s great if you’re just starting out or if you’re sprinting half marathons in your spare time.

The magazine features in depth articles around the best running methods, the top races to consider and profiles of runners and their training programmes for you to take inspiration from. It’s great for those rest days to motivate you to get going again the day after and offers plenty of good advice and tips from the pros.

Cycling Weekly

If your weekends consist of churning up the mud in your local forest park or embarking on a 20-mile round trip on your bike with the reward of a pint at the end of it all then Cycling Weekly might be for you.

With bike reviews, cycling news and insights into races up and down the country to enter, Cycling Weekly is perfect for the avid biker. The publication has been around for 125 years now, so it’s safe to say it knows what it’s talking about.

Four Four Two

Considered one of the biggest football magazines, Four Four Two always has an exclusive interview with a well known player as well as plenty of news and updates about the beautiful game. The publication is also famous for its Best 100 series each year as well as the stats zone, where you can read up on where your team is in the league tables. The Performance feature is a must read, as pros from the game reveal all the secrets when it comes to the sport.

Rugby World

However, if you prefer an egg shaped ball to a typical football then Rugby World might be for you, with details about upcoming game fixtures, player profiles and the latest news when it comes to the sport itself. You’ll also enjoy regular editorials such as 30 minutes with… which features a fun interview with a well known player, as well as popular in depth columns on developments in the sport.

Sport Magazine

Aptly named, Sport magazine covers every sport going when it comes to content from football to weight lifting and also appeals to either gender. It’s a must read though for its insightful articles that could inspire you to take on something new when it comes to your exercise routine. There’s usually an interview with a well known sports personality thrown in there for good measure as well as predictions for upcoming major tournaments and insightful pieces about changes in sport.
