Just wear weighted vest or ankle weights are you artistic?

No, you literally just adjust the leverages. Change the moment arm, change the torque on the muscle. Very minor adjustments can cause a huge change in torque.

Body weight exercises can be extremely effective (gymnastic strength work, not just pushups), but most of it is just ineffective for the lower body.

Bodyweight exercise is for autistic people

No, there are better ways to progressively increase resistance.

do front lever and planche progressions for upper body and sprints or plyometrics for lower
