Can i get buff without weights?!


Question: Can i get buff without weights?
Alright well i know that its hard to get buff without weights but ive set my mind to it so im gonna do it. The promblem is im 16 and my mom wont let me by wegiths becuz she is an asshole and controls evrything i do. So ive started doing pushups, triangle pushups, inclined pushups, Dips, pull ups, chin ups, calve raises, and a few other body only exercises. I know that while they might make me big for the first few months it will slow down. So what im wondering is i know that muscles grow when u tear them. People are always saying u will get bigger by lifting massive weights and doing few reps. The problem is i dont have access to any wieghts but i have an idea. Once pushups. pull ups, chin ups get easy can't i jsut do more and more until i cant do any more aka muscle failure? wont this tear the muscles and cause them to grow bigger? or am i wrong? i mean like doing 60 pushups until i would just fall down cuz it hurt too much or will this not tear the muscle? any useful help is appreciated. dont tell me about about nutrition, sleep, or that i need weights because i know all that i want to know about that and dont need any advice on it. And it would be nice if anyone has any stories of them getting bigger without weights and how they did it. also any exercises u know that are good for getting muscle without weights. thnx.

Answers:

That won't make your muscles bigger and stronger. It will give you much more muscle endurance though.

To get big you have to lift big as you know. Find heavy objects you can attach to yourself without raising suspicion. That's your best bet.

You can only get so "buff" on your own body weight. Your own body weight is all you need to get extremely defined and "cut up", but to add muscle and beef up it will be hard without weights. However, there are things just around the house you can use. See if your mom will let you get a kettle bell. If not, use a milk jug and pack it tight with sand. Pack a basketball with sand. There are all sorts of alternatives for weights.

As you seem to already know, when you work out you're tearing the muscle. So if you work on your arms one day, you need to work on the legs. You can use your body weight in leg exercises like air squats and lunges-a lot of them! Alternate which muscle group you're focusing on each day because you have to give each group rest after tearing them to build back up.

Go to crossfit.com. There are a lot of things with weights, but a lot of it is also your body weight. You can take some of those exercises and make them yours to fit what you do/don't have available.

Good luck!



Actually what your doing is perfect. I mean my brother was all skinny and he just started doing push-ups pretty much all you said and got bigger not as big but a big difference. What i used to do is just get a backpack and add books into it and do push-ups that could also be helpful. Make sure you eat you could turn the fat to muscle and since your doing push-ups that would be good enough,
