This is what I was looking for. You are right. I only eat a lot of protein. Beef sandwiches and stuff. I did read I need to match my weight in protien so I eat 3 eggs a day with a protien shake in the morning for lunch I'll have 2 sandwhiches or 2 ca2s of tuna with bread or some other high protein food like burgers etc Plus protein bars etc. I thought all I needed was high protein. Land blah blah more protein for dunner snack etc But I got to eat more balanced diet okay cool. Yeah sure big ego blah blah no denies I got a big ego but you definitely are better help than just i need to left. And if you could could Where cam I find the side bar

You can still get fuckin jacked with calisthenics, although it's not strictly as efficient as weightlifting. And I still recommend doing barbell squats and deadlifts.

Getting big takes years of work, regardless of whether you're weightlifting or doing calisthenics. Some improved definition after a few months is normal progress.

You're not doing weighted bodyweight work, and you don't eat enough. Your muscles will only grow if they face new stimulus.

protein bars and shakes

Put garbage processed byproducts in, get garbage out. It's not quantum physics.

Brown rice and beans. Eggs. Chicken. Spinach (fairly high in protein- iron, and folic acid.)

I'm doing calistenics, why aren't I getting built?

I'm not bashing this, it definitely doesn't hurt. But if you want to build muscle, you have to fucking lift heavy weight. Not just your body weight.
