How to make my waist smaller?

[Slashton1]

Hi guys, I'm 5ft3 and around 52kg give or take and I am really trying to shrink my waist but I'm not sure how to do it? I run 2 miles 5 times a week and I would say my diet is generally good. I went from 10 and a half stone to around 8 which I am happy with. The only problem I have is I want a more defined waist. I'll insert a picture so you guys can see what I'm talking about. I don't think I am really overweight or anything so I don't know if losing even more would really benefit me in any way? But anyway let me know what you think (I will admit in these photos I definitely wasn't fully relaxed but I wasn't overly sucking in either haha)

i wouldn't advice you to lose weight, but that is the only way to get a smaller waist

Yeah you might be right. I guess it's just frustrating because I feel as though if I lose anymore I won't look like myself anymore. I see a lot of women who are bigger than me but seem to have a smaller waist without even trying and its so annoying because I actually do try :/

that's genetics for you... i also see guys with similar stats and bench numbers yet their chest is more developed than mine

Your waist is plenty small no need to shrink it further.

you'll have to diet down to an overall lower bodyweight. You can't choose where the fat comes off and there is a very good chance that your overall look will suffer with more weightloss. Weight loss is different than fat loss as weight loss also encompasses muscle loss which will happen with you. That is a look you do not want.

Like others said genetics.

Growing your bum can make your waist look smaller if your adding muscle

But your genetics have pretty much determined your waist. Like I would like wider hips but that will never happen

You can try waist trainers and corsets but I strongly do not recommend this

You may not be able to get your waist smaller but you can create the illusion of a smaller waist by developing the lats,shoulders/delts and shape in the outer quads.
As these develop the waist will appear smaller and you develop an hour glass shape to the body.
Good luck.
