- This is a combination of “bro” and “protein”. “Bro” [noun] is short for brother or friend or close companion. “Protein” [noun] in general refers to amino acids that aid in muscle recovery. This is just a more hip way of saying “protein with bros.” “Shall we commemorate this glorious workout with some brotein?”
Brotein (3)
blending; noun
Protein you consume with your bro. After returning from a solid lifting session with said bro, you head back quickly to solidify your gains with a healthy serving of protein powder. This forms a strong bond between bros, one that not be broken even by their glorious muscle composition.
Etymology : This is a blend of “bro” and “protein.”
Source : My lifting partner mentioned we needed to buy more protein after Harvey ends, and I responded with, “bro, hell yeah, let’s get that brotein.” It’s stuck since then. August 29, 2017
