Gym or calisthenics?

[kilavvo]

Genuine question.

Ik that probably there's no universal answer for everyone on this (or maybe there is idfk)

I'm 16 and like extremely skinny. I want to gain weight and get fucking jacked. The only reason I even have this question is that I don't want to go to gym. This is not abt exercising on its own but abt other people there, I don't fuckin want anyone to see me struggle with small weights and shit. Idc if you say that nobody would care I just can't.

So can calisthenics be superior to gym in any way? Can I actually get jacked by doing calisthenics? (I know that there are plenty of dudes stating they got their crazy physice without lifting, but I can't ignore the fact that they can just straight up lie to sell courses and shit)

Or just get a home gym, calesthnics ages you too much and limits growth, 100lb weight set is like 110$ just buy two of those and you should be able to train everything but back just do weighted pull ups i get you I hate going to the gym bloated/ when i look bad
