The title probably doesn't say it all, but basically it comes to this: I don't have the traditional "V" (or even straight) shape which you would normally find and certainly my hip width is bigger than that of my waist. Bit of a downer and never really found the cause of it. I am concentrating on Weight and Strength training at the moment and I thought about including a lot of wide grip rows to bring out the lats more and try and reduce how significant it looks. What about working on the obliques? Would this help or just make it worse? I understand that diet will be a factor (even if it may not be the sole cause) and it brings me onto a another point. Whilst I am looking to get more muscular overall, I understand that this means eating, a lot. Thing is, I don't want to fall into the pit of eat a lot of putting on more fat. Is it really too optimistic to put on muscle and lose fat at the same time? Is it too much to ask for or is it better to just bulk it out and then focus on losing the excess at a later stage? Thanks everyone!
