Ive been working out for a couple of months now and i made some noticable gains but all of my fat is stored in my hips and my hip bones are wider than normal so ive been thinking if i should skip exercises that work legs and hips since they make them bigger ?
>>37039321
Your fat storage and type of exercises you're doing are not related to each other
>>37039321
Google "curl bro"
You should be ashamed.
>>37039367
i know but doing deadlift and squads makes hips bigger by increasing the muscle mass on that are a and i already have wide hips. I dont wanna end up looking
>>37039404
like this guy in the pic
5'4 manlet, 155 lb, here.
I've been lifting on and off for ~2 years. I haven't once done a leg day until yesterday. Mostly just been doing my upper half, with some calf and hamstring work now and then. Squatted 3pl8 and deadlifted 3pl8.
I think most of my strength came from the fact that I used to be overweight so I had already developed lots of leg muscle beforehand.
Regardless, make sure to work out your legs. Aesthetically, having fat calves and legs can make you look overweight even if the rest of your body is much more fit. If you have sculpted calves and quads, you look much better, even if you look flabbier up top.
Get those leg gains. You don't just look fat if you work your legs.
>>37039422
work your lats
>>37039321
No, do your squats and deadlifts. They won't make you look fatter than you already do you fat sack of shit.
>>37039467
And your shoulders, this guy has literally no lats and no lateral delts.
Basically no.
You're fucked either way. If you have wide hips
you
will
never
look
good
There is quite literally nothing you can do (or cannot do) to make yourself look better if you have been cursed with poor genetics. Working your legs will not change your pelvis, not working your legs will not change your pelvis.

im not fat actually im 182cm 70kg aroun 12bf but all the fuckin fat is in my ass and legs.
>>37039496
Listen here twink, do your squats, do your deadlifts, do chin-ups, pull-ups, rows, and do your OHP and lateral raises and you'll look good.
>>37039321
unless you can see the pl8s deadlift has to be the worst lift to be photographed doing. at least if you squat and theyre out of frame it still looks like youre doing something
>>37039492
well if you're not a manlet you could go bear mode. not everyone was built to be a lean machine
>>37039496
can u post a pic? Do u even have muscle at 70 kg with that height,let alone that bf%
>>37039444
nice trips but you didnt just squat full ROM 315 your first time training legs at 5'4 155 lbs.
literally never happened. 6.4/10 i replied
>>37039404
>>37039422
no you want retard, that's bone structure, squats and dl don't make your hips wide, but it will increase test production so you won't be a little bitch
>>37039675
I mean, I squatted in the past when I was starting out and was learning how to lift. But, I've been running for years and worked as a lumberjack for 2 years as well. Moving logs that are hundreds of pounds doesn't come without gains as fuck.
I don't know what to tell you. I threw on a plate, and it was light as fuck. Threw on another. Could still do at least 20 reps. Threw on a 25, was getting close to 10 rep range. Threw on a 35, still feeling decent enough. Threw on another 45 and got 3 reps out and did 3 more sets of 315.
>>37039492
Are you retarded?
Your pic related's right lad has wider hips than left.
Left basically has the worst fucking shoulder width you can get.
Wide hips don't matter as long as your shoulders are wide enough for it.
>>37039321
Can someone tell me why this guy looks so fucking odd? Is this shopped or am I missing something?
>>37039321
Why would you want to?
>>37042326
Narrow shoulders combined with small lats and a thick core. Could be genetic, could be stupid-ass training.
>>37040230
Never happened
>>37042351
God damn Im scared to look like this. Im bulking rn I think I'll pass cutting this year...
>>37042326
chest is unnaturally large. def cycles.
legs look tiny
>>37042470
Theyre overlapping like balloons someone pls save this guy.
>>37039321
The longer i look at that image the worse it fucking gets oh my god.
>>37042495
needs lots of delt work.
and improper form has made the side of his stomach flare out.
>>37039492
How wide would you estimate both of those guys shoulders are? I want to compare myself because I genuinely don't know if I'll end up like the guy on the left if I get bigger traps
>>37039492
Troll picture.
Does someone have the picture of the guy on the right where he isn't being shot from a top down camera angle?
Also, the guy on the left is doing shrugs.
>>37039321
Its possible to make gains without deadlift sure. Plenty of people do it. You can't just skip legs all together though, squats are necessary
>>37040230
literally shit tier bait
Am I fucked /fit/ just started lifting and I'm not sure I have a good frame for it
What do you guys think of my shoulder / hips width
>>37043143

>>37043300
>tfw have to use a machine to bench press 35 pounds
>tfw the real bench press is right next to the machine and there's a cute girl benching lmao 1pl8
