Can you get ripped without going to a gym?

Like by only doing sum light cardio and throwing in sum push ups, sit ups, pullups etc for resistance training.
Answer:
I think you can be ripped without going to the gym but you really have to have a high metabolism, exercise or train very intense, and eat like a health freak. Prime example: Bruce Lee. Another example: gymnasts, these guys are more ripped than alot of football players dont you think? Weights help build more size, muscle size that is, but I dont think you really need it to get ripped. But you need to train correctly and eat correctly to get to that goal. Remember genetics and age play a role, so this might be true for only some lucky individuals!
if u wanted to get RIPPED ..then i doubt it . going to the gym and getting the right diet would be more realistic lol
Doubtful, but not impossible. Depends on the amout of resistance training, and your methods.
Yes, but "some" may be more than you anticipate.
If you are fat, the answer is no.go to the gym
Well sure, being "ripped" ie. having your muscles clearly visible is purely the result of having a very low bodyfat count.Having huge muscle mass doesn't make you ripped. Look at the big powerlifters and world's strongest men guys.You won't be able to put on much in the way of muscle mass beyond a certain point without progressive weight training. After you reach a certain point, ie. say being able to do 20 pushups, all they do is build muscular endurance. To stimulate hypertrophy (muscle growth) you need to continue to increase resistance.But being ripped and muscular are two very different things.
