Hi, my name is Octavian and I'm 18. My goal is to unlock the muscle-up. Excited to level up 🔥

Hi, i am a junior high schooler, currently 9th grade, my weight usually goes between 53-54kg, i am 167cm tall. I wish to have some level in doing calisthenics, i have school stuff and lack of any equipment, so all i have is floor, wall, and chair for elevated surface.

Guys, please help me get to level 2 so i can start taking the pull up strength class. I can only do one normal pull up, and i would like to be able to do more. Who knows, maybe i can progress to atleast 5?

I’m looking for the most effective way to define my abs more and build strength. I already have some abs, but I want to make them more defined. What’s the best approach?

Growing up, I was always the skinniest guy in the room. I started at 50 kg (about 110 lbs) with almost no muscle. That feeling of being overlooked, not being taken seriously, and even a bit invisible was tough to shake. So, I started working out at home, hitting push-ups and whatever calisthenics I could manage, determined to change. Over the years, I went all in. From training with bodyweight exercises to eventually bulking up in the gym, I pushed myself to lift heavier, eat cleaner, and stay consistent no matter what. Today, I've added almost double the muscle and even built my bench press up from a humble 75 kg to a solid 105 kg. That journey from skinny to strong wasn’t just about my physique, though—it’s about confidence and self-respect. The gym taught me resilience, patience, and the power of showing up every day to work on myself. It’s an investment in who you’re becoming. Your Turn: What’s your biggest goal in the gym, and what are you willing to do to make it happen? 💪
