BS. I have a huge chest and triceps from doing dips. 52” chest. I rarely ever benched. My best bench was 315x2 which is nothing for a guy my size. In my prime at 28/29 years old, I could do 48 hanging dips with my own bodyweight

Someone doing a proper heavy weights routine with progressive overload can get there in a fraction of the time it would take them to build a similar amount of muscle doing bodyweight workouts. There's nothing wrong with doing bodyweight, it all depends on what your goals are.

Progressive overload is important in growing muscle. Bodyweight exercises just don't provide that.
