Hi /fit/, I have a few questions. First, looking at sculptures of ancient greeks, how did they get so ripped? I mean, they didnt have squat racks, barbells, or benches. Was it all bodyweight? If bodyweight can be that effective, it seems like a good alternative if I can't get to a gym.
Now, I have some questions about bodyweight fitness, as I really won't be able to get to a gym for a long while(travelling). If I keep eating like I am bulking, will bodyweight give me gains? Should I run to get extra fitness while doing bodyweight? Will running make my ass flabby? I know bodyweight can give you some joocy upperbody, but I am worried about lowerbody, as SS has given me some good looking quads and glutes.

That guy has very little musculature (you can get that in 6 months lifting, easy).
He looks good because he is like 9% body fat
This is a good goal as you can't expect huge muscularity from calisthenics

I know I wont get huge from calisthenics. I am just looking to be stronger than most, and better looking. The thing I am most concerned about is running. I plan to join the military and go for a bretty active mos, so I think I should run at least 4-6 miles a day, but I don't know if running like that is good for me. I know that marathons are bad and make people skellies, but if I eat enough and do calisthenics, will 4-6 miles a day be healthy cardio/leg workout instead of skelly creator?

This guy gets it OP. After about 6 months - 1 year of bodyweight for your upper body and maintenance of any lower body gains on SS you should have something similar to David's body type after a cut.

As long as you eat enough you should be alright

if you want to honest truth I am planning to use the bodyweight workout meme picture that I see posted here a lot. It has different progressions for different bodyparts.

That's like seeing comic books and wondering, how could people look like that ?!
