There's also a point of "it's too hard I can't do it" where you start over analyzing your body. All this about insertions and stuff isn't necessary. Workout. Eat protein. Lift heavy. Don't overthink it or you'll put in so much mental energy with little reward

Yeah so what if your body doesn’t fit body building standards? Just accept yourself and do what you can

you can always improve. My best advice is grow, use ur hight to ur advantage ur shorter (still only and inch below the avg) so you can put on visible muscle way faster. do a lean bulk
