When shaping your body there are a few tricks you can use to fool the eye that you have more nice curves then you actually do.

First of all when setting your workout goals, be realistic. Don't pick a picture out of a magazine and say that you want to shape your body to look like that. Take a look at yourself and work with what you have that are your stronger assets and body parts. For instance, if you have a wide waist you could shape your arms and upper body to make it look like you had a slim waist if that's what you want.

To create nice curves you should work on your shoulders including front, side and rear deltoids and your hips, glutes and hamstrings to lift your firm butt, and create nice curves.

Work with light weights buy high repetitions to firm and tighten on the legs but use a little bit more resistance for your upper body and your shoulders to build a little bit of muscles. Depending on if your upper and lower body sometimes responds differently to weights you have to adjust your workout routine accordingly to reach your goals. Maybe your legs are your stronger body part and don't need that much heavy work but more of maintenance workout but your upper body is weak and you need to increase the strength in your arms, shoulders, back and chest.


To get nice curves in the right places you also need to work your torso muscles or the power-package, which include your abdomen and your lower back muscles. This will get rid off the wrong type of nice curves you might see when turning sideways in the mirror if you abdomen are not strong and tight. When tightening the abs your whole posture changes and if you train your glutes and hamstrings at the same time, you will be able to create some nice curves.

If you are a woman with a large chest you might want to work on that midsection even more to create an already curved body. Work the side abdomen muscle, your oblique muscles to tighten the sides and shrink your waist and give you more shape.

The best shaping exercise for your legs are still the good old walking lounges. This exercise should not hurt your knees unless you already have knee problems in which case you should not attempt to do lounges at all anyway. If you feel any irritation around the kneecap while doing them, take a break and stretch out your quadriceps, which are your front thigh muscles, by grabbing your own foot with one hand and bringing the foot behind you bending your leg, up to your buttocks.

Whether nice curves are something you are aiming for with your workout or not, the overall shape of your body will change when you start to work out and it's up to you to see if you like the changes or if you want to train differently to change the shape of your body a little. Some things like wide hipbones or the curve of your spine but there is also a lot when it comes to your shape that you can change. You just have to take what you were born with, learn to appreciate yourself and do the best with what you got.

Throw away your weighing scales. Keep your abs and behind toned(though you want to put on a couple of pounds on the behind). Stay fit and healthy. Always eat a breakfast (so your metabolism doesn't slow and you set up good energy levels for the day) and eat what you like, when you like(within reason) before 7pm and never eat after 7.30pm. That way you'll put on pounds in the right places but maintain the right balance of slim and curvy. Keep the abs toned coz guys like curvy in the hips and chest but slim at the waist.

Not that I'm against exercising or anything, but I had gym class my whole life and never had curves. My opinion, most females are straight until they start their cycles. After that, their body starts to change.

I really noticed my curves after I had my first child................not that I'm suggesting you get pregnant!

Do sit ups
but instead up and down ...do them up and down towards the sides of the abdomen...
that creates curves

krispy kreme helps and budweiser, if you are of the age go with bud cause it packs on the curves real fast, and you can always take some milk thistle to flush the toxins out of your liver, Krispy can cause diabetes so good luck

no matter what body shape you have everyone looks their best when they are in good shape, and eat right. So try exercising everyday. join a soccer team, go for a walk (or jog), play tag with someone. you'll feel better about yourself, look better, have more energy, and it's just plain fun!
