    5. …You wear DJ-style headphones while you train.

    They've got my number. Though why that would make me a bro, I have no idea. Something about the shape of my ears makes ear buds unbelievably uncomfortable.

    39. …You do lat pull-downs instead of pull-ups or chin-ups.

    I do lat pull downs, but simply because I can't do a full good form pull up - once I can do full pull ups, I will. I do chin ups (max of five reps per set at the moment).

    23. …You talk to yourself in a conceited manner during your sets—“Yea, squeeze it, c’mon, one more rep.”

    Funny, although not all are entirely true (hence the "might be" I guess.)

    My lifting partner wears sweatpants because he has a naturally tiny frame and is ashamed of his tiny ankles. He squats 500lbs, but thinks his legs are too skinny.

    I do lat pulldowns only because I can't do pull ups yet. (more than 2-3).

    I do assisted pull ups with my toe on an incline bench when I couldn't do pull ups, just a suggestion.

    I am 17 and 50. Yeah, buddy!

    Originally saw this and thought, "uh-oh, let's see how much of a bro lifter I am".

    I was doing so well, not conforming to any of them until "43. …You use a neck pad on the bar during squats" & "47. …You carry pre-packed Tupperware full of chicken breast and rice everywhere you go".

    Damn.
