Not this one featuring Steve Weatherford, top photo, who shows his butt on RG Beefcake and Boyfriends
I never heard of him before, but apparently he's famous.
You can only see it for a second before Judy turns off the light. Notice that it's positioned very low, at Kelvin's height.
Being a research fan, I looked through the entire Muscle & Fitness cover gallery to find the issue chosen by the set dresser. Notice that it shows a man with very short hair, arms akimbo.
I worked at Muscle & Fitness in the 1990s. Joe Weider was extremely homophobic, worried about gay men reading our magazine, so almost every cover featured a man and a woman together. A number featured just women. The only male-only covers during my four years at Muscle and Fitness featured a celebrity, usually Arnold Schwarzenegger, but sometimes Lou Ferrigno or a sports figure.

There were a few non-celebrity male covers later, like this one from October 1997, too late for the 1993 flashback, and not the right cover anyway.
