Hi guys, i started calisthenics 3 months ago , and still i haven't change much. I try eat healthy and this , and i do some rotines , but still no bigger change, i have chest a little bigger , but i don't have right training , i don't know how to organize my train and so on , maybe i will give up :/
Also , i am a ectomorf , as all know it's hard to me gain muscle, i eat a lot too, but no bigger changes after 3 months , so i will give up
Bro 3 months isn't enough time for you to change . Your skinny so it's gonna take more time for you to gain muscle
Ok bro, i have to stay motivated and never give up , i will try do my best, i still don't buy chris program , but i will , it's a good program , and have exercices and all organized and is for levels, it's good , because you don't will give up untill you do levels.
Oi pt tu tens de comer bem, tenta fazer batidos mega caloricos e bebe antes de dormir. Come saudável. Faz seis ou sete refeições. E se conseguires compra o plano que está brutal. Se acordares no dia a seguir ao workout e n tiveres durido ent n trabalhas te o suficiente
Boas, és dos unicos pt aqui neste forum? Eu tento comer bem , e como 6/7 vezes ao dia , ja noto algumas diferenças no peito, mas como ainda nao comprei o programa é mais lixado xd, tambem não tenho uma barra muito boa, mas dá para arremidar, secalhar vou comprar uma das melhores para fixar a parede, ou mando fazer uma, vou tentar , e nao vou desistir.
Its true what the others said. 3 months is nothing and you shouldnt expect visible results in that short time. Your body is probably still getting used to be working out. But remember - if youre skinny and want to gain weight, you have to eat more energy than you spend. If you do that, you will gain weight. I'll explain it all in the upcoming nutrition guide :)
Hi Chris thanks for response :)
I try to eat 6/7 times a day and try eat healthy almost the times. I am waiting for nutrition program
Thanks
Remember bro, you gotta eat healthy.. sure, but you gotta eat A LOT and you need A LOT of calories and so on. http://www.bodylab.dk/shop/muskelopbygning-151c1.html scroll down on that page, it's all in danish, but you put in your kg, height in cm and your age and it tells you exactly how many calories you should be going for, for effecient muscle growth.
I am ectomorph too! but you know, you seem to be in a good shape! thats good :D DO NOT look back! rmb why do you start. The only time you fail , is when you give up. I spend 7-9 months training and eating healthy, I didnt see any results but then day after day, I push myself and the result came. From 6 packs to 8 packs! :) Do not give up! keep updating your progress here my brother.
Bar brother all day everyday! Salute!
Thanks Luqmanli , i started my journey in December 15, i eat 6/7 times a day and eat healthy.
I will not give up in my first obstacle , i will pushing myself , results will come with hardwork.
Thanks for motivation bro :)
I will buy Chris program soon
Your welcome Rui! Glad to help ^^ dont give up yah! We are in this tgt. We are the bar beotmm
Just finish my workout today, i made Chris shoulders split routine, and made 3x10 normal push ups, 3x10 wide push ups , and 3x6 clap push ups.
Was a good workout, just a little pain in my shoulders but no problem .
I don't will give up :)
I eat a egg with bread and a banana after right workout.
Salute from Portugal :)
Look man, nutrition is everything. Don't eat sugar and eat at least 1.5 grams of protein per pound of body weight per day. Train and push yourself as hard as you can. Give your best and you will have no regrets. I promise if you work hard results will come just have patience, and get a program bro!! To look like a beast, you got to train like a beast. Keep posting, you got all of our support bro!! BE THE BEST YOU CAN BE!! BarBrothers ALL DAY EVERYDAY!! Salute!!!
Also make sure that what you eat is about 45 to 50 percent carbs. And drink 3 liters of water per day and do cardio if you can bro!! Results will come just be patient a little bit more. BarBrothers ALL DAY EVERYDAY!!! Salute!!!
I will do that. i push myself , as i am skinny i eat more carbs and protein , i don't eat sugar, only a little on milk on breakfeast , but i will try change sugar to honey, i only don't understand only the part of proteins, how much i have to eat if i weight 60kg?
I kilo= 2.2 pounds. Eat more than 150 grams of protein per day.
one thing you have to remember is that sugar is a very important part of your diet. The sugar found in fruits for instance, and other types of carbohydrates found in rice, bread, pasta etc. is all very important. You need all 3: Fat, sugar and protein. I can see some of you really need the nutrition Guide. I'll work on making it as fast as possible! (y)
Yesterday i have done Chris Leg Split Routine, after made Chris Core Split Routine and after this i still made 3x7 normal push ups, 3x7 wide push ups and 3x5 clap push ups.
On Leg Routine , hard exercise was burpees , but still i do everything , and on core routine , i feel my abs burning , but in summary was a very good workout :)
After workout i eat a banana and a egg.
Salute :)
Thats the spirit brother! Never give up . Be innovative and creative . And the most importantly you enjoy your workout and pure hard work! You deserve to ve rewarded 💪 Results will come!
That's great bro, looks like you've been putting in hard work and it'll pay off soon if you stay dedicated, I promise. Keep up the good work! BE THE BEST YOU CAN BE!! BarBrothers ALL DAY EVERYDAY!! Salute!!

All members of this forum are my motivation :)
Rui. Hello brother. Unlike everyone else here apparently I am here to tell you that 3 months is enough time to change a lot. I am also an ectomorph therefore I do not have that much fat, my metabolism is really fast, I have to eat constantly and never stop working out because I also lose muscle really fast. Think about it.... The Bar Brothers System is about 12 Weeks of training and it's guaranteed that you will change your body. So 3 months is more than enough to see results and become even more inspired to keep on going. I am sorry to tell you that you are simply not doing it right. But don't give up brother. So here's what you are going to do that worked for me. First of all, you have to EAT EVEN MORE. I'm not talking about the biggest breakfast there is. No no no. eat normal foods(good carbs, protein), there's no need to eat more in one meal BUT also make yourself a sandwich, toast with peanut butter, fruits, tuna, müsli in between these meals. that way will always have something on your stomach. So 3 big meals and small "snacks" in a day. OK THEN... avoid cardio. I know the struggle for ectomorphs. If you workout too much cardio you simply get skinny. I myself prefer to have a little fat(I still show abs) but show BIG. So I hardly ever do cardio routines and focus just on other muscles. NEXT STEP I would recommend for Chris' programm to not do full-body routines. do split as he says.One day, you workout upper body, the next day you do abs and legs. The reason? it takes too much time, so your body reaches a point where your it can also be burning muscle to get the energy it needs to keep going. So split workouts is ideal and I would recommend it for you. LAST STEP. I read that you eat a banana or an egg after workout. That is not good, you burn waaaay more calories than that while working out. I workout and eat dinner right away. If you workout earlier then try to eat as much as you can after it. The fruit and the egg can be eaten as snacks through the day. (too much egg is not that good too, at least the yellow part). Keep on going with this programm wich is excelent and I love it so far, and NEVER GIVE UP.
This was a long post I know but I hope you take the time and read it. You follow this and it will give you the results you want.
SALUTE
Hey Daniel
First of all, i respect your opinions. Some of the things you say though are not correct, and other things you say, are just your opinions.
1: it depends on what you mean by "changing your body". Sure, you will be able to change your body, but if you think about, your body changes a little from day to day all the time, so those words from the system "guaranteed results" are primarily just a sales method. Its true because it will probably have effect on your nervous system especially, but the thing is, you won't be able to complete a full body transformation in 12 weeks, or even put on a remarkable amount of muscle in that short time.
2: Also, you can't tell someone he's not "doing it right". There are many ways to do it, and people progress in different ways and pace. No one is doing it perfect, and there is not always a right and wrong.
3: Your reasoning for not doing/recommending full body workouts like my workout program and I recommend, is inaccurate. The workouts take around 2 hours to complete, and even the longest ones 3 hours. If you don't have enough energy to workout for 2-3 hours, you simply just have to eat more. + with a rest day every second day it's not because you spend more energy doing full body workouts every second day, compared to do split workouts every day.
4: I also often eat a banana and an egg after the workout, but thats not the meal lol. Thats just what you bring to the workout spot and eat right after the workout and then you go right home and eat a proper meal, so i think you misunderstood. :)
hope it could clarify a few things!
- Chris
Thanks Chris for your response
Was very important to me and helpfull
Thanks again ;)
Hello everyone again. I think I missunderstood from Rui's first post. After three months working out, I thought he said almost no results at all and he also thought of giving up because of that. I'm sorry Chris but working out for three months and seeing no results whatsoever then there IS something wrong. I didn't mean to imply that after three months you will achieve a bodybuilders body. Not at all. I know it takes years. But after three months of working really hard you should be able to see change. About your workout Chris. Yes I simply gave my opinion on what works for me. I really like your program more than The System but I prefer to not always do full-body workout because I'm tired of others activities throughout the day. Therefore I split your workouts like I said on my previous post. So I left you with what has been working out for me in the last 9 months. Sorry if I misunderstood anything.
I wish you the best of luck Rui.
And have a great day everyone.
it's all good my friend, sounds like youre going the right way!
- Chris
Thanks guys , Daniel , when i said "No Changes" , i went said my body not change much , but already change bro , i think you will understand now.
With Chris Nutrition Guide it will be much better for me , i have questions , i think Chris nutrition guide will clarify me
Hi Daniel, thanks a lot for your response :) I appreciate it , i already try eat sandwiches, i eat tuna , chicken and all that. 3 months already give me results , my chest is bigger and my bicep too , but i disagree with you when you said 3 months is time to change a lot. I agree with Chris when he said , my body are still adapt , but it's your opinion and i respect it. I only do cardio, one time a week :)
I will try follow your tips :)
Thanks again
Cardio won't make you skinny if you train full body workouts every second day, and eat a lot( of good stuff though, lol). Believe me, I know. And the changes can be relative to each ones genetics, so work hard, sleep 7-9 hours, and eat what you're supposed to. Period.
Thanks Daniel :)
My workout finish today
Today i make Core Split Routine and in end of training , a little cardio for burning fat :)
It was good workout, but today i was not much motivated , but still, i finish all sets and reps. I will wake up with more motivation tomorrow.
Not every time will you be motivated. You think Chris felt motivated for every single workout. I don't feel motivated every time. But that's the thing man, that's what should motivate you. Remember the reason and think "Why the hell am I not motivated, am I not in control!". Remember what you are going to become bro! You have to be willing to sacrifice what you are for what you will become!!! BE THE BEST YOU CAN BE!! BarBrothers ALL DAY EVERYDAY!!! Salute!!!
I know bro, it's hard stay motivated but with all help i receive in this forum from Chris and other members, it's very helpfull :)
