Alright. Self conscious guy here. My entire life I've wanted to get into bodybuilding but have always found an obstacle in my way. I sit here at 22 years old and wonder is it even going to be worth it? Id like to know from any experienced bodybuilders here if it's even worth me trying to lift. Do I have any potential with my frame?
>>
Id appreciate knowing if its just a pipe dream.
>>
Guess not...
>>
>>41638752
Your frame is fine. Your arms are small but they may respond really well to lifting. You won't know if you don't try. Bottom line? Yes, it's worth it.
>>
>>41638866
Thanks, mate. I guess I'll give it a shot? I think my shoulders may be a bit small though. They're at 48" but I've never lifted so I guess that's okay, right?

too late, sorry fami
Nice gyno and small arms though, you're prime for HRT
>>
Everyone can lift and get gains. Your frame is probably better than alot of people who still managed to get ripped despite their disadvantages. So you can do it too.

Read the sticky, read the Starting Strength book and start lifting. Make sure you keep track of how many calories, protein and fat you consume.

We will all make it
>>
Bodybuilding? lol fuck no there are kids at 17 and 18 that shit on body. it would take you at least 3-2 years to look like an actual gymbro and then another 3 to 2 to become someone that people actually look at and say wow he looks great
>>
>>41638894
Gyno?
>>
>>41638752
only one way to find out m8
>>
>>41638752
Is anything going to be worth it? Youre gonna die in 50 some odd years.

Might as well not do it, right?
>>
>>41638924
>>41638927
I think I already made it clear but I've never lifted in my life :) also thanks to the encouraging guy.
>>
>>41638888
Yeah it's okay. We all start somewhere. Smaller and weaker guys than you have transformed and looked amazing. Chase your dream brosef.
>>
>>41638948
Looking at my average family members life span I'd say I'll live up until 92.
>>41638955
Thanks, mate. What were your stats before you started lifting?
>>
>>41638979
Before I started I weighed 64 kg, today I'm 95 kg. Honestly at this point the lifting is secondary to me after boxing and BJJ, but I definitely transformed myself over the years and feel a lot better.
>>
>>41638752
honestly do it, you look like total shit. You will never look great unless you jump on gear. however you can become above average with some work.
>>
>>41639044
That good mate but I meant your shoulder size hah
>>
>>41639063
Never measured that before I started. But they're definitely thicker and wider now.

Js but von moger was worse than op before he started lifting...
>>
>>41639079
That good. Bonus points for you being into boxing.
>>
>>41639088
If you think that's worse than you're fucking blind or a retard
>>
>>41639105
Von moger was definitely in better shape but his upper body width was utter shit. Just look at those clavicles...

the only obstacle is you
read the sticky and start lifting right now
>>
>>41639150
I'm going to go for it.
>>
>>41639126
Sure, his proportions are off but he was still "in shape"

OP looks like he's never done physical labor in his life
>>
>>41638888
Just go my man.

Everyone is nervous the first time but you will learn to love it. There are so many benefits.
>>
>>41639174
I know that von moger was still better looking and in shape but in terms of natural bone structure op is probably better.
>>
>>41638752
My nigger if you just hopped on the test you'd blow the fuck up so nicely
>>
>>41639221
I kinda want to build a more classic physique. Like steve reeves. I think some of the current guys are to bloated. Just my opinion.

If by "bodybuilding" you mean "making yourself bigger, stronger and better looking naked by lifting weights" then yes, yes it's absolutely 100% worth it.

Don't fuck yourself over by worrying about shit like "potential" before you even start. Most people have so much "potential" for improvement that they'll never use it all up.

>>41638752
How the hell is your chest so small?

You look a little like me when I started lifting. Pic related.

Just lift dude. All you need is a good routine, a good diet and motivation and you'll make it eventually.

A good starter routine would be for example the Arnold golden six-routine. Very basic stuff, but it works really well.

For what to eat, go to tdeecalculator dot net to get started, and also read liamrosen dot com.
