    28 Signs That You Might Be A Bro

    With all the bro talk, bro myths and my new favorite bro science video guy, I thought it might be helpful to point out the top signs that might make you a bro. BTW, in this case being a bro is not a good thing:

    1. If you shave your entire body except your legs you are undoubtedly broriffic
    2. If you use the phrase “I’m on Protein” or “I’m thinking about getting on protein” you are a bro.
    3. If you always train chest on Monday even if you have missed a body part, you are a bro.
    4. If you purposely worry about matching in the gym and worry about the actual clothes you’re wearing you are a bro.
    5. If you carry around protein during your workout yet do not worry about the rest of your days nutrition you are undoubtedly a bro.
    6. If you ask question like “should I get on testosterone or Sustanon” you are a bro.
    7. If training interferes with your drinking, you are a bro.
    8. If you lift simply in the hopes that it will make you more attractive to the opposite sex you are a bro.
    9. If you think bodybuilding is gay but wear anything to the gym with pink on it you are a bro.
    10. If you can bench more than you can dead lift and this never changes you are a bro.
    11. If you think you know your body better than anyone else making any advice useless, you are a bro.
    12. If you think “Men’s Health” is a bodybuilding magazine you are a bro.
    13. If you believe anything real bodybuilding magazines say you are a bro.
    14. If you always wear wrist wraps or straps on leg day you are a bro.
    15. If you tell people straps and belts are bad, you’re probably a bro.
    16. If you brag about how good you look after 14 hours of dieting you are a bro.
    17. If you brag about how muscular and ripped you are after staying consistent in the gym for three and a half weeks, you are a bro.
    18. If you ever say “I’m raging because of all these steroids” you are a bro and should not procreate.
    19. If you say physique isn’t gay but bodybuilding is you are a bro.
    20. If you do any of the following exercises more than once per week, skull crushers, barbell curls, bench press, dumbbell tricep extensions or shrugs you are a bro.
    21. If you shadow box or bop your head around like you’re dancing before every set, you’re not only a bro you are also mentally retarded.
    22. If you purposely wear Affliction or Tap Out shirts to the gym every day, you are a bro.
    23. If you put on gallons of cologne before you go to the gym you are a bro and you’re also making me throw up.
    24. If you ever say things like “I’m gettin’ huge swole” and you’re actually saying that out loud with a serious look on your face, you are a bro.
    25. If you talk openly and loudly about gear at the gym, you are a bro and should refer back to #18.
    26. If you think that zzzzzzz guy was a bodybuilder or some type of related role model, you are a bro and it’s highly unlikely you can be saved.
    27. If lifting your shirt up after a set of any exercise to look at your abs in the mirror is part of your regular routine you are a bro and no woman should ever get near you.
    28. If this list has angered or pissed you off, you are a bro and should seek out therapeutic treatment immediately!

    29. If you wear a different pair of sneakers every time you train, and they all look fresh out of the box, you are be a bro.
    30. If you say you can squat 310, but only go 1/4 of the way down, you are a bro.

    Ha, number 30 is right. Saw a guy a few wks ago, couldn't have been over 180lbs and he had six plates per side on the squat bar...I'm not sure he even went a quarter of the way down, he just sort of vibrated with the bar on his back and called that a rep. The best part, when he was done his bro gave him a fist bump...and then I shit my pants with laughter!

    I'm guilty of 4, 8, 20, 21 which is interesting because I always suspected I was mentally retarded but now I know for sure, 23, and 24.

    "half bro" LOL! I've heard it's like male pattern baldness, it's passed down from your mothers side but it often skips a generation....at least that's the rumor. I don't believe it though because the bro breeding has gotten way out of hand.

    No doubt there is line breeding taking place in bro breeding! They really should require less brocest among bro's mating!

    Yeah it's too much to handle. Can you imagine if Iran, Russia and China ever got together and decided to attack the U.S.? Would the bro line of defense be able to stop them? A bunch of duck lip chanel earring wearing bro tards cussing, fist bumping and throwing hair gel at the invaders...we might actually win though as they'd all be on the ground laughing at our bro's hysterically.

    Man I knew the comments in this thread would make my day...."brocest" LOL!!!

    31. If you get pissed as the sweat melts you're hair gel down your face, you are a bro
    32. If you yell "Light Weight!!!" with every rep, you are a bro (Unless you ACTUALLY are Ronnie Coleman)
    33. If you are Ronnie Coleman, you are a bro

    I have a guy that comes in the store, we are actually friends but he is a true BRO. I have a girl that works for me also and she follows him on Instagram. She shows me all the time where he buys $45 FlagNorFail shirts and then cuts them off to make him look bigger. It's absolutely hilarious.

    He is on 4x as much dbol as 3 people should be, he is on deca, tren, test and adrol also. He never comes off anything (I ADVISE HIM OFTEN HE SHOULD) and is still a little feller. He wears a beanie for every workout and everything is nearly pressed and matching.

    I remember a group of guys in college, who would call guys "bros" as a pejorative term. They were a group of like, 'hipsters' or whatever they call themselves now days, and anyone who was jacked, lifted weights, or was in remotely good shape, they'd be like "yea that dudes a serious bro." I was kind of offended by it, because their idea of a bro was anyone who is in good shape or jacked, was by definition an idiot with no intelligence. It pissed me off because I was friends with one of the kids, he was a burnout, it was my senior year, I was 200lbs @10% bf, and carrying a 3.95 cGPA while taking 22 credits per semester, so I was pretty vocal about that to shove their stereotypes up their ass....

    Ronnie Coleman gets a free pass. He's a bro but in that rare good way.

    I also thought about putting on the list:

    "If you wear sunglasses in the gym while you train you are a bro"
    "If you wear large amounts of jewelry while you train, especially very large gold chains outside your shirt, you are a bro"

    But both of those are even beyond brolife and into another category of stupidity that's all it's own. And yes, I've seen both of those many times, I'm sure others have too.

    BTW, someone should start a magazine, print or internet and all it brolife....I'd read that magic all day long! LOL!

    1. If you shave your entire body except your legs you are undoubtedly broriffic: I wax my entire body biweekly
    2. If you use the phrase “I’m on Protein” or “I’m thinking about getting on protein” you are a bro. I say I eat a lot
    3. If you always train chest on Monday even if you have missed a body part, you are a bro. if I missed a day I skip that day
    4. If you purposely worry about matching in the gym and worry about the actual clothes you’re wearing you are a bro. lol
    5. If you carry around protein during your workout yet do not worry about the rest of your days nutrition you are undoubtedly a bro. Do people actually do this?
    6. If you ask question like “should I get on testosterone or Sustanon ” you are a bro. SO now I am 100% sure a Bro is a newbie
    7. If training interferes with your drinking, you are a bro. FML this is funny
    8. If you lift simply in the hopes that it will make you more attractive to the opposite sex you are a bro. Douchbaggery big time
    9. If you think bodybuilding is gay but wear anything to the gym with pink on it you are a bro. I dont think BB is gay, but have been known to wear a Breast Cancer awareness shirt a time or two.
    10. If you can bench more than you can dead lift and this never changes you are a bro. Is this possible?
    11. If you think you know your body better than anyone else making any advice useless, you are a bro. Again confirms a "Bro" is a newbie
    12. If you think “Men’s Health” is a bodybuilding magazine you are a bro. WOW, didnt expect anyone would think Mens Health is a bb magazine
    13. If you believe anything real bodybuilding magazines say you are a bro. hahahahahahahahahahahahahahah
    14. If you always wear wrist wraps or straps on leg day you are a bro. Holy shlt I have seen this before
    15. If you tell people straps and belts are bad, you’re probably a bro. Heard this before also
    16. If you brag about how good you look after 14 hours of dieting you are a bro. No comment
    17. If you brag about how muscular and ripped you are after staying consistent in the gym for three and a half weeks, you are a bro. ALl newbies do this
    18. If you ever say “I’m raging because of all these steroids ” you are a bro and should not procreate. This is usually the immature kids who sip pro hormone shakes daily
    19. If you say physique isn’t gay but bodybuilding is you are a bro. Can someone define what makes something gay and what doesn't?
    20. If you do any of the following exercises more than once per week, skull crushers, barbell curls, bench press, dumbbell tricep extensions or shrugs you are a bro.Is this a 5 day week or 7?
    21. If you shadow box or bop your head around like you’re dancing before every set, you’re not only a bro you are also mentally retarded. Seen this, but thought he was just getting into his rhythm
    22. If you purposely wear Affliction or Tap Out shirts to the gym every day, you are a bro. Agree 120%
    23. If you put on gallons of cologne before you go to the gym you are a bro and you’re also making me throw up. So many do this in Kuwait, its almost like they are coming to attract men.
    24. If you ever say things like “I’m gettin’ huge swole” and you’re actually saying that out loud with a serious look on your face, you are a bro. Havent heard this, but will keep an ear out for it
    25. If you talk openly and loudly about gear at the gym, you are a bro and should refer back to #18. Thats most of the locals here
    26. If you think that zzzzzzz guy was a bodybuilder or some type of related role model, you are a bro and it’s highly unlikely you can be saved. As you can see from the "Zyzz" thread thats a lot of members here. especially the aussie members.
    27. If lifting your shirt up after a set of any exercise to look at your abs in the mirror is part of your regular routine you are a bro and no woman should ever get near you. Agreed totally, this makes me sick to see a guy finish a set of rows then look at his abs. WTF
    28. If this list has angered or pissed you off, you are a bro and should seek out therapeutic treatment immediately! hahahahahahahah
