In this picture notice how the guy has some muscle that sticks out on his sides between his hip bone and his lats. For me it is exactly the opposite, I have no muscle or anything here and in between my hip bone and my lats my side goes in like this ) (.
Can I do anything to fix this? Will doing core workouts like hanging leg raises give me mass in this area?

Oblique work - twists and side bends etc.
Bodybuilding is 60% training and 50% diet. Yes that adds up to 110%, because that's what you should be giving it. Change the inside, and the physique will follow.

The guy looks in relatively good shape. You can't tell me most of his body fat is all concentrated in that one area.Originally Posted by forklift

Where his fat is concentrated is irrelevant as far as what he's saying. Just because he has muscle there, doesn't mean that what you see is muscle.Originally Posted by FSUBRAH84
Also, if he didn't have muscle along with fat there, you wouldn't see it the same way. Work your core.

It's the last 4 digitations of the external oblique muscle, anatomists refer to it as the flank pad portion.
