For those of you who have never watched YouTuber Dom Mazzetti, he is a bro who makes videos about BroScience (BroScience (noun): Lifting advice from an unqualified bro who looks like they work out.). Most of the time, his videos consist of funny things only "bros" would understand, but sometimes, he manages to give actual advice anyone could and should use while working out in the gym, or in public. Here is a list of things us dedicated viewers have actually learned from the great Brofessor.
1. If you look big, you'll get big.
Shirts are key. If you want to look big in the gym, there is certain attire you should be wearing, depending on what you're working out that day, in order to help you look your best. Here are a few examples of what you should be wearing.
Legs (who even does this?): Long sleeve shirt, and make sure to roll it up halfway to make your arms look bigger, because you won't be working them out that day.
Chest/Arms/Shoulders: Tank, duh.
Back: This one's tricky, because it's not the front. This alone should make you suspicious. However, your best bet is to rock a fitted tank or a fitted t-shirt.
2. How to hit on a girl at the gym.
Not really sure if these work, but apparently, if you give a girl advice, help her out with the machine she's using, casually walk by her while flexing (multiple times), and make sure to get to the water fountain before she does so she can stare at your gains while waiting, you're in pretty good shape.
3. Always take pre-workout before you hit the gym.
This shouldn't even be a question. If you've never taken it before, make sure to start with one scoop.
4. Locker room etiquette
Basically, don't be THAT person.
5. When it's okay to use your phone at the gym.
Mirror selfies, music, and to check social media in between sets. The only time it's okay for you to answer a phone call at the gym is to tell that person you're at the gym. Use it, don't abuse it.
6. How to get out of leg day.
Most bros agree that leg day is the worst. It's not your upper body, so what's the point? Basically, any excuse works, your bro will understand.
7. What is bulking?
There are two seasons, bulking and cutting. In theory, bulking is when you put on quality muscle mass over the winter, in order to shred down over the summer. Fact: Bulking is just an excuse to be lazy on your diet, see how much you can improve your bench, and see how much weight you can slop onto your body.
8. How to find your perfect gym buddy.
Make friends, make gains. Someone with a similar build, who can lift as much (or more) as you can, and shares your hatred for leg day.
9. What is a pump?
You know how after you do a set of curls or just finish benching, all the blood rushes to the veins in your arms and makes you look your absolute biggest? That's a pump. A real bro lives for the pump.
10. How to take your shirt off.
The most important part of being a bro is knowing how to take your shirt off in public. You lift to show off your body. Mark your ground, look around to make sure people know you're there, and slowly take off your shirt (from bottom to top) in one single motion. If you can do this, and other dudes can't stop staring at your gains, you've won in life.
