So I've been doing bodyweight exercises semi-frequently for the past few months, and while I definitely feel stronger and can do way more reps of push-ups, pull-ups, squats, and lunges than before, I feel like I look no different and I've only gained one pound. I want to have less scrawny looking arms and shoulders, and for my butt to not be a pancake for once in my life. Not sure if this is shallow, but it would help a lot with motivation if doing this shit that my body really doesn't enjoy doing actually left some visible impact.
I know these things take time, but I'm wondering if my approach is wrong. What's usually the best way to actually build visible muscle? Is it about how much weight you lift or what? I feel frustrated. Hope this doesn't count as doomposting, just saw that's against the rules, I'm just looking for tips and venting at the same time.

Didn't Arnold always used to say "milk is for babies" whenever they'd ask him if he was a milk drinker? Yeah I see it's a thing after I googled. There's no way my body would tolerate that though.
Arnold was on lots of roids
It doesn't sound healthy to drink that much milk. Milk has a lot of hormones and stuff in it.
You don't do bodybuilding to be healthy. That shit is hell on your kidneys and heart. You do it to be swole af. If you want to be old-school healthy eat a diet with almost no sugar in it and walk 20 miles every day.
For the John Muir bonus, walk ten miles up a mountain and ten back down every day
