Thread 76721998

Right now I'm stuck at 22 pull ups/35lbs 8 pullups and 30 dips/35 lbs 15 dips. I still look like a skinny fat freak with gyno. I have been gymcelling for over a year and it seems that I've stopped progressing. Should I just cave in and buy a gym membership or keep coping with calisthenics but with a heavier vest (70 lbs)?

Calisthenics can build a good physique but you're working twice as hard as those with normal gym equipment

>>76721998 (OP)
Go to the gym, do isolation moves and get jackt. You can do so by buying an adjustable dumbbell without going to the gym too. Extra tissue will help protect against injuries and improve your leverages too, helping your calisthenics
Meanwhile keep plugging your calisthenics with added weights for strength, health, conditioning, etc. You may dial down the volume / intensity to reduce some load.

>those reps
>le skinnyfat freak wit gyno
why are there so many blackpill posters on this board making up shit especially towards bodyweight exercise and skinnyfats? It's almost as bad as /r9k/, what you're saying is completely impossible without a respectable physique at worst
What do you get out of it? Do you want anons to genuinely respond with things like "I'm gonna quit working out there's no point" on the fit board? I don't understand

>22 pull ups
>30 dips

bet your ROM is trash

>>76722204
yeah theres no way a guy that can only do 30 dips can do 22 pullups

Post body. You wont though because youre a faggot

>>76721998 (OP)
It doesnt matter because you'll never put in the work. If you really wanted it, you'd already be lifting and not worried about some arbitrary timeline.
If someone does tell you a timeframe you find acceptable, you'll go the gym then quit in a few months when you see no progress and then go back to making "how to achieve" threads with a pic of Gooky the anime character waiting for someone to "redpill" you on how to get jacked without doing anything. loser

If you can't look good with calisthenics then the gym won't help

>>76722204
I'll record it soon, chud.

>>76721998 (OP)
its honestly probably just the lighting in your room. even when i looked my absolute leanest and best when i went to stay with my parents i looked like a skinny fat dyel with gyno because the lighting in my childhood bedroom/bathroom was very unflattering. meanwhile the mirror in my room in my own house had good lighting and i looked great, and the mirror in my gym's changing room had 10/10 lighting and i looked like a greek god (esp cos i only saw myself with a pump in it). either that or your just not lean enough. you cant look good just doing calisthenics without getting lean.

Having done both this and the traditional gym
Yes you can but I've found the gym to ultimately be faster and easier to make the same progress. When I switched from calisthenics to gym, my progress at the gym blew everything from bodyweight training away almost immediately. This is likely a "me problem" but in any case the gym is the typical go-to for a reason.

You can build all muscles with weighted calisthenics + one dumbbell.

OP is a fraud and didn't post a photo.

yes

op is an idiot that doesn't track his macros correctly. he probably overestimates or thinks that a salad has like 50 grams of protein in it, and that protein is the same as animal based protein.

he probably thinks he doesn't have to do that everyday, and that bro science is a total joke.

sure
