Your shoulders, waist and hips are approximately of the same width with no obvious curves to your figure.

Aim: To build broader shoulders, a stronger chest, and curvier hips.

Side Lateral Raise

• Targets shoulders

Side lateral raises help to build stronger and more defined shoulders, while giving you increased shoulder mobility. Start with moderately light weights and raise your arms straight out from your sides to shoulder level.

Dumbbell Flat Press

• Targets chest

Dumbbell flat presses give your upper and lower pectorals an even workout. Lie on your back with feet flat on the floor and a dumbbell in each hand. Rest your elbows on the ground before thrusting them up toward the ceiling, lowering with control.

Squat

• Targets hips and thighs

Squats aren’t just great for spot-toning your hips, butt and thighs, but your entire body too. It helps create an anabolic environment, which keeps your metabolism high and burns even more fat.

Aim: To build a broader, thicker and more athletic-looking upper body.

Push-Up

• Targets chest

Push-ups are a highly effective bodyweight exercise that will work the triceps, pectoral muscles, and shoulders. Bonus: Engage your abdominal muscles to simultaneously strengthen your lower back and core.

Dumbbell Row

• Targets Back

Dumbbell rows will tone and build muscles in your back, while also strengthening your spine for improved balance and mobility.

Grab your weights, bend at your hips and knees and lower your torso till it’s almost parallel to the floor. Let the weights hang at arm’s length from your shoulders, pull them up to your ribcage, squeezing your shoulder blades together.

Shoulder Press

• Targets shoulders

Shoulder presses are key to building bigger, stronger deltoids. It also builds the outer deltoid head that gives you more “capped” shoulders, for a more pronounced shoulder-to-waist ratio.

Sit on a chair with back support, bend your elbows at 90 degrees, raise your upper arms to shoulder height, dumbbells at ear level. Push them up overhead and lower back to the start.

You have wide shoulders, slender legs, and your weight tends to accumulate in the hip and abdomen area.

Aim: To shape up your legs and firm up the mid-section and the hip area.

Lunge

• Targets Legs

Lunges like squats, are the unsung heroes of fitness journeys that work more than your quads and supporting adductor muscles. Feel the burn in your glutes and hamstrings as you extend the hips during the upward phase and control the descent of your body during the downward phase.

Leg raise

• Targets abs

Leg raises use nothing but gravity to target the lower abdomen – ideal for burning lower belly fat that many struggle with. Lift both legs up with control to activate your thigh and hip muscles.

Floor hip extension

• Targets hips

Floor hip extensions work your hips, glutes and hamstrings. For sedentary office workers who spend a large portion of the day sitting, it’s an important exercise to keep your hip flexors mobile and strong. Place palms on ground and get into tabletop position, and extend one leg backward and upward in a controlled motion before switching to the other leg.
