Ectomorph means nothing. I'm an ectomorph, was always lanky/skinny until about the age of 20 when i decided i didn't want to be lanky and skinny anymore. I just looked weak. No excuse for being skinny. No excuse for being fat. I still have the wrists and forearms of a 14 year old girl though. I know i can improve them too its just a lot more effort. Also 5'9 is not manlet.
I can sympathize with your complaining about face but not with being a skinny ectomorph. You said you've never worked out you so you don't even know if you can improve. Maybe if you lift for a year and still look exactly the same, you can complain.
Always has a reason, and excuse for something not being done.
There always something. It's this, it's that.
Life built on a cope jenga tower. One day it will fall, and he will have to man up for once in his life. Tik tok, that's life going before him.

Once you experience an ounce of results it's all going up hill from there. Consistency is number one, and after that you find what works for you training, and diet wise. What I found most interesting about my journey is the delusional pill all liftees have when they first start training, it's like they suddenly see a muscular brute force after a few months, despite looking like a twink to others. This delude pill is what also fuels you to becoming stronger, bigger and faster every session afterwards. When I look back, I can't believe how tiny I was even after my first-second year, yet I felt huge back then. being blind, can also be a blessing. it's as though we start to look passed our short coming, and like what we see. Even if it's a .25 inch on our arms, it makes a huge difference. it's surreal, and something we never seen before.

This. Once you look at yourself in the mirror with a pump after just a few weeks of going to the gym, you can see the result of where your body is going. Really incentivizes you to keep going when you can see the results right in front of you, and you know you're improving.
Yep. Regardless of Fred's hang ups about gymcelling/coping/meatheads lifting, he is 6'2 I think. Absolute godmode when you have a toned, muscular physique with that height. I mean having abs and filling out a T-shirt, not f*****g Ronnie Coleman size. No-brainer to begin lifting with that height. Short muscular guys just look like compensating manlets, can rarely take them seriously. And before you start Dante ,you're 5'9. That's not short.
I don't like to hate on short guys, but it's undeniable how everytime I see one I can't help but think he is my son, and I am his father. No doubt, that lifting weights is a saving grace for our horizontally challenged folks.
manletics is serious business
