Because its free
I agree, But is it better than lifting weights, and can you get the same results without lifting weights?Because its free
I dont think the two should be compared...
Some goals would be heavy on calisthenics like boxing etc
Football/basketball/baseball goals would def have weightlifting in it
Its about promoting the idea that you dont need a gym to get in shape...
Especially in NYC...

Because calisthenics builds real muscle, unlike lifting which builds fake muscle. 
You also only need 20 grams of protein a day and anything more gets converted to waste.

Yeah, just know none of those brehs got that big using just calisthenics...
Genetics may come into play a bit. I know some dude in Nigeria who've never lift weights but are cut up like a slab.
They do work manual labour so that may factor in as well.

That manual labour by day work is no joke breh. They are swole as shyt, and they can't afford to eat the amount of protein these fitness people recommend. That's why this whole pound of protein bodyweight shyt confuses me

That pound of protein thing is being pushed by the supplement industry to sell more goods.
You got manual labourers in Nigeria that are crazy swole and get most of their protein from beans.

All that shyt is bro science
Eat,Sleep and workout you’ll get the results that your genetically supposed to have
It seems like we're heavy in calisthenics, I only knew a little bit about calisthenics, though.
Is calisthenics better than just lifting weights and why are so many Brehs into it?
Calisthenics is for life.
When you put your legs on the ground and stand up out of a chair or off the bed, that's a body squat.
If you use your hands to push down and life yourself up out of a chair to a standing position, that's a triceps dip.
If you're laying on your stomach for whatever reason and use your arms to push yourself up, then extend a leg and stand up, that's a pushup to a lunge.
These are exercises you can do daily, that you do naturally that you can do for the entire duration of your life word to Jack Lalaine.
Otherwise you're going to be one of those obese or frail people who one day sit in a chair, lay in a bed or fall on the floor and don't have the strength to get back up.
