I’ve always been thin. So now that I’m getting in shape, achieving abs and upper body strength was relatively straightforward.
But my ribs have always shown. Especially the bottom of my rib cage. Maybe the last three or four ribs, and it just looks weird. Is there something people would recommend, either diet-wise or (preferably) workouts to target that specific area?
Help would be appreciated!
The diet side of it is good to be partly genetics. You don’t have any control over there your body desires fat. If you’re lucky, it’s going to be spread all over, so with a little weight gain you wouldn’t see stuff like that. On the other hand, if your body primarily stores fat in your belly, you’d have to gain a lot to see a difference in your ribs.
For the exercise part, look up exercises for oblique and serratus muscles.
Much appreciated. My body actually decides to store fat in my hips, weirdly enough—I dunno if that’s common for men, but it’s the case with me. And no matter how in shape Ive gotten, I can’t seem to shed that hip weight. Oh well. Love handles never killed anyone. Thanks again for the tips
