They're brothers who talk about supplements and lifting. They don't claim to be experts. Just (more often than not) common sense anecdotes from their experiences. And they always offer the catchphrase, something like,

"In the end this is just advice. You can take it or forget about it. That's all it is, just advice. At the end of the day you can do whatever the **** you wanna do!"

Pretty sure they're making money. All their vids are monetized and have a ton of hits.

The black dudes are the twins. They post videos on youtube giving nutritional advice. The white guy in the OP is Ian McCarthy. Basically all he does is run around calling people out on misinformation they may have. He has a FB page called "No Bullshit Bodybuilding' and it's basically just all the idiots from bb.com posting there worshiping him

He is 17 I believe, has no muscle mass, and used to be a regular poster on BB.com before he got banned. He likes to pull up articles to support his points and that is the only "credibility" he has. He basically talks shit to anyone who has a different opinion than him

Twins are the black dudes.
White kid is Ian McCarthy.
Short text: Ian seems to be trying to get hits via pot stirring a popular YouTube channel (Hodgetwins a.k.a. TwinMuscleWorkout)

This.

Soft-voiced, looks like a dork, would never take advice from him.

Would be like me telling you or BC123Jm (on anyone else on this planet) how to lift.

GIANT wtf factor! :no:

I tried watching a few mins of each of the vids posted, and actually cannot believe the apparent volume of 'bodybuilding/fitness' videos on youtube by people that seem to be devoid of any credentials, as well as any displaying any actual evidence of their own success/results. Additionally, the number of people who even follow this and feel it's necessary to post 'response videos' is a surprise to me as well.

As someone else stated, I'm glad that I have no clue what's going on here -lol. Although I will add that the kid in the 2nd response video came across as a pompous snot (Just because you stepped on stage once or twice doesn't mean that you're qualified to dole out advice either).

Pubmed is his "source" for information which is essentially a bunch of abstract studies that he uses to suit his own twisted views of nutrition. As someone who had an eating disorder he thinks his advice is the truth and end all be all. Do not even link him and or give him views.

I don't know about "average", BUT (and this is directed towards Curt), the ability to get in shape/build muscle has nothing to do (or very little to do) with one's IQ.

One can be a full-on idiot and still be jacked.

Just like one could have the high intelligence of Hany Rambod and look very average and stocky.

As he points out at 9:09 in this video, they are making a lot of money off the YouTube advertising. So why on earth would they stop?

In fact, when appealing to that kind of fan base, the weirder the advice, the better. You won't get 145,000,000 views telling people to work hard and lift heavy stuff. But ... if you tell them to use a mixed grip on biceps curls ... now you've got something!

They make it clear that they're not taking any AAS. The one brother noted 8 lbs. per year gains. :dunno:

Dre, they're definitely no dummies. Catch phrase of "do whatever the **** you wanna do!" as well as a direct, humorous delivery.

This place is a fishbowl of superior physiques (many, not me, but many) while teh Interwebz is filled with people who have absolutely no clue on nutrition, cardio, or lifting.

Even if the Hodge twins had no clue (they do) they would still find an audience on YouTube.

They are doing it smart. Like they said in the last video, they know their target audience and they make their videos for them specifically. I like what they said about Ian; It's not that his information is bad, its that he has no respect for anyone. I wish I would have thought about trying to become a youtube celebrity haha, I wonder how much they are making

This is so true. For some reason i just wasted my time today arguing with him and his followers that not all carbs are the same and that insulin plays a significant role in the body's ability to utilize fat stores. I wasn't as to pull any scientific studies out of my ass the way this kid does since I'm on my phone and that, to them, destroyed all credibility.
