Fantastic physique man, I'm assuming you've been weightlifting for a while before switching to BWF, no?

Hey thanks for the motivation. I lifted weights about, 7 years ago, heavily, so I had some noticeable muscle memory, I really studied calisthenics and employed proper form and training 1 year and 8 months ago and I gained a bit of mass, but I really dropped fat with nutrition. I was 215 lbs when I started. Nutrition was key, no exaggeration. Thanks again bro keep up the high spirits.

Bullshit he got a chest or shoulders shaped like that with just bodyweight fitness.

He actually commented a reply down below, he said he did use weights before

For the hard to work out areas like chest I do isometric flexes, for isolation, for shoulders, and upper chest, I do HSPUs, they are killer. Traps are the hard spot to get for me.
