"If you like Abercrobie models you'll love these studs." |

"I swear, you could bounce a quarter off that guy's buttcheeks." Ok, that was my first thought as I looked at the perfectly round cheeks peeking over the top of a pair of jeans on the homepage of Muscle Adonis. "Hot young muscle studs", the likes of which you'd find in an Abercrombie catalogue or Playgirl magazine, are the specialty here. The action includes solo stroking, guy-on-guy, and guy-on-girl. No matter what they're doing, you'll revel in their "hunky glory."
The Goods -
All of the content on Muscle Adonis is exclusive. They shoot all their own material of delicious studs baring it all. They seem to have professional photographers and these men know how to work the camera so each shot is enjoyable.
They definitely stick to the stud theme! These guys are tight, toned, and tan. All sport six-packs and bulging biceps. They stare into the camera with a look that says "Yeah, I know I'm hot and you want to feel my pecs." Or something along those lines. The majority of the scenes are softcore so you can just admire the eye candy without getting your hands dirty.
The Bads -
Some of the photos are much too small. We're talking 200x350. There are very few sets with pictures that small, but all the same, it was disappointing. While we're on the subject of picture variations, I also found some to be heavily pixelated. My guess is that they were scanned in and some quality was lost in the process.
I'd like to see more browse features. The photo galleries are loosely organized into vague groupings and the videos are kind of separated by theme. That's just not going to cut it. I'd love to see a model index where you could access all the sets of a particular model. At the very least it would be nice if they just shared the names of the models in the set. No information is provided about the men or the scenes. That's a shame because I'd definitely like to know who these hotties are (and maybe a phone number or two).
The collection is a bit small. Right now you'll find just over 6,000 photos and 38 videos. It won't take you long to make it through that collection. Thankfully, updates are coming and pretty frequently, at that. From the looks of the schedule, a new gallery or clip is added several times a week. At least the site is still growing.
The videos are streaming only. Unfortunently the videos play in-browser with no option to download. Since it's in-browser, you can't even enlarge the picture at all. I didn't care for these limitations.
Conclusion -
I give Muscle Adonis an A for their hot models, although the rest of the site would score a bit lower. I actually think my biggest complaint is the small photos. The collection will grow in time but there's not much you can do about a 450x690 picture. And it just isn't fair to the models to have them in such small pictures. The streaming video also takes its toll on the score. There's definitely some potential here so hopefully our next visit will see some improvements.

Review: 10-16-07 |
It's been over a year since our last visit to Muscle Adonis and since then the site hasn't grown as much as I would have expected. The number of videos increased from 38 to 58, but somehow the number of photos looks like it decreased from 6,000 to 4,000. I'm not sure how that happened since it looks like updates are coming usually about twice a week. The pics are still a bit too small and the videos are still streaming-only, which was disappointing. One change that is interesting, however, is that they're now adding a lot more porn-type content. There's more masturbation and such now, in addition to the softcore posing. Overall, there haven't been any huge changes to the site so it remains a fine enough join with potential to be better.
Score decreased from 76.1 to 75.5.
