TC Luoma

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Terrence Christian "TC" Luoma aka T.C. (born Northwest Territories, Canada) is the Editor-in-Chief for the online bodybuilding resource Testosterone Magazine (now usually called Testosterone Nation, or simply T-Nation), and for the printed magazine of the same name.

The Nation represents a community of world-recognized^{[citation needed]} professionals and amateurs in the fields of strength-training, powerlifting, bodybuilding, injury prevention and rehabilitation, nutrition, and general health. The Testosterone website gained some of its initial success^{[citation needed]}, in part, due to an exodus of fans and talented contributors to the now-defunct Muscle Media 2000 magazine. Luoma left the magazine, of which he had been the editor-in-chief and primary contributor, when he was unhappy^{[citation needed]} with the decision of publisher Bill Phillips (author) to change the magazine's focus and direction away from the sometimes harsh realities of hardcore bodybuilding to a more "mainstream" image^{[citation needed]}.

In an early issue of the online Testosterone Magazine, Luoma's initials were revealed to stand for Terrence Christian^[1].

TC has recently published a book "ATOMIC DOG: The Testosterone Principles." The book is a collection of his articles on T-Nation along with some new material.
