I have a small frame/bone structure, is lifting even worth it if I have a dyel body?

You're just a lazy asshat looking for excuses. Start lifting and stop whining like a little bitch.

You won't get any downsides from lifting and good diet no matter how 'small frame' you have.

Small wrists will give you more aesthetic look when you pump up your arms.

Everyone's got an excuse.

Most of us can never hope to look like Arnold in his prime. That doesn't mean we don't look SIGNIFICANTLY better when we have greater muscle volume and low fat.

Bullshit excuses. I’ve got handers as small as a womans, and i’m still one of the biggest guys in my gym.

Yes.

You're not trying to become a world-class bodybuilder. You're trying to get a hotter body than 90% of men out there. Small wrists won't stop you from accomplishing that.

The important part is at the bottom.

You don't have a huge amount of muscle on your wrists and hands, so it is difficult to build them up, but with the right training you can still improve their size. Exercises such as wrist curls and extensions, along with grip work can increase the size of your wrist and hand muscles. Charles Poliquin, owner of the Poliquin Performance Center for elite athletes, advises that you do all your curling exercises, along with some of your other upper-body exercises, with thick-handled barbells and dumbbells, to give your hand and wrist muscles a real test.

I have "bad genetics" too but I am still in better physical shape than 97% of people thanks to hard work at the gym. Even someone with bad genetics could still slay if they work hard. For visual reference, someone with bad genetics could still get to AT LEAST Tyrese Gibson level.

What's "a dyel body"?

You may not become a body builder if you work out, but that shouldn't be your goal, which should be to enhance your strength and maintain your physique.

I have a small bones too (as judged by my wrist) but I have no problem crafting a physique.

That’s an excuse.
