If I'm 5'9" is calisthenics enough to get me looking like mcgregor? I don't want to get much bigger than that and look like a compensating manlet
>>
>>42731569
Yeah it will, but lifting will get you there much quicker.
>>
>>42731586
I don't want to go to a gym and be the little compensating guy
>>
>>42731569
You may look even better
>>
>>42731593
well, you can build a home gym then. If not, get a weighted vest to increase weights instead of reps while doing calisthenics.

Dunno what your height would have to do with the efficacy of the exercises, but calisthenics is fine as long as you do a good progressions. You'll have to use weights for legs/traps though.

Also, stop falling for the manlet meme dumbfuck

basically a lifetime of hard work in calisthenics will allow you to look like al kavadlo. is that what you want 10+ years of hard work to look like when you could be bigger in one year with lifting?
>>
>>42731653
>doesn't know short people get swole way easier than tall guys

You must be new, a manlet can look more swole doing pushups and pullups for 6 months than a tall guy can busting his ass in the gym everyday for a year

Source?

Nice strawman you illiterate nigger; how quickly you fill out your frame has nothing to do with how efficient a particular exercise is. Calisthenics works just as well for manlets as it does for lanklets
>>
>>42731569
This compensating shit is hilarious, its like every other insecure retard that comes here and asks "I'm [insert insecurity here] should I even bother lifting?". Well mister beta faggot lemme ask you something, would you rather be a slob manlet that looks like shit? Or would you rather be the fit, ripped manlet?

Lifting can only help you, it can't make it worse. You know what makes it worse? You sitting there and doing nothing because you're afraid strangers will judge you for it. Well news flash, they already judge you, they think you look like shit.
>>
McGregor looks like shit, he's also a fucking manlet and irish. No amount of fight money can take that away.
>>
>>42731653
> he doesnt know how to get jacked legs without weights
>>
You would prob look better if you touched weights, 5'9 is taller than Mcgregor. 165-170 lean at 5'9 is aesthetic imo

why do DYELs always think that you'll explode in size and be some hulking behemoth the second you start lifting weights? it is literally impossible to become "too big" by accident, it takes a considerable amount of work and dedication to get "too big" it's not something that's going to happen automatically. you're actually worried about becoming bigger than mcgregor as if it's something you want to avoid, the reality is you probably couldn't get bigger than him if you tried with your shitty attitude about exercise.

Your fear is gonna hold you back - unless you're doing something dangerous no one really gives a fuck or is paying attention to you, definitely not the extreme lifters

If you're really all that worried you should start at a more casual gym and work your way up to a more serious gym

>>42731569
It is enough but it's gonna take a long ass time. Which is fine if you want to actually have control over your newfound mass. Lots of gym rats have shit mobility and coordination because they just train for the mass.
>>
>>42731593
But you are that guy already

What does this stance convey?
>>
>>42732242
It basically says "come at me and see what happens cunt"

Agreed, also known as the alpha dog stance.
