>How do I get /fit/?
uhh it's very simple actually, don't overthink it, you just do the following steps:
>make sure you have your sleeping in check, drink a lot of water, drop goyslop food and drinks and ciggies and alcohol as much as you can
>you can either track calories or not, your choice, just don't obsess with it
>lift stuff (plates, rocks, yourself if you do calisthenics) at least 3x/week, it's adviced to hit the same muscle groups twice a week
>to grow muscle stay in a slight caloric surplus, to lose fat while maintaining as much muscle as possible stay in a caloric deficit, aim for 0.5-1kg weight gain per month
>remember that you have a natty limit to your maximal muscle gain potential, in other words as you keep lifting longer and longer you will hit deminishing returns and you will start growing less and less muscles, it's mostly genetics here, your first one/two years of lifting will yeild the most gains, also called noob gains, and will provide the most result for the time investment
>as long as you are consistenc with your training even if the programming is bad and the excercises are not optimal you will grow regardless of that
>if you pick a program (regardless if lifting or calisthenics) then stick to it for at least 4-8 weeks before switching to something else
>if you train hard you can't train for weeks non-stop, you need a deload week where you reduce volume/frequency/the weight you lift to let CNS adapt and improve performance
>it's ok to hit plateaus
>tendoes take much longer to adapt than your muscles, if you have the brute force necessary to finish a lift it doesn't mean that your tendons are strong enough, if you notice any recurring pain when lifting immediately stop doing that exercise and consult with a medic, better take a one week off than go to snap city and never lift again in your life

if you want to learn cool moves and given your height you can try calisthenics if you want or just go to gym

forgot to mention the MOST important step
>stop scrolling /fit/ and staring at pictures of men in the catalog and r9k/pol/incel bait
pretty self-explanatory, there's nothing new in fitness, it's always the same discussions about the same topics over and over again, this is the true gains killer especially if you let a literallywho on internet to get in your head
>if you watch youtube fitness influencers (most of them are pathetic grifters) and they are selling you their program or some shit like that then you can assume they are roided faggots and you shouldn't listen to them
>actually do your own research, there's enough literature and scientific studies on the topic, anything from diet to how muscle actually grows in the most efficient way is available for free online so you can avoid listening to faggots online
that's all anon, hope to never see you again here

Eat 3000 calories a day and lift weights following a beginner program.

Then in 3 months try a different program.

Then in 3 months try a different program again.

Then eat 2000 calories a day and follow a different program for like 6 months.

Then BOOM! It's one year later and you're in better shape than 90% of the global population.

Short + skinny = calisthenics

Just do pull ups, it's just that simple.

I've seen this work extremely well for someone with the exact same stats. It really probably is the best option here. Also throw in a bit of dumbbell work for completeness.
