    Hey,weird question i know

    anyway lately my training has started actually taking effect, bitta weight gain thank god, gained 8 kgs during the summer ,kept it on now. Struggling to get higher than that but thats from lack of money to buy my own food and not having control of the shopping list.
    Anyway most of the gains have been in my legs but my waist has stayed the same size. Im a 28inch waist but all the pants that fit are too small in the thigh region and anything thats big enough to not be a squeeze on the leg is too big to stay up on my waist haha
    Will my waist ever increase in size or does it stay the same no matter how big the rest of me gets? It seems to me like it wont but im just wondering because im going to have to come up with a solution fairly quickly
    Also its pretty embarassing having such a small waist....

    If you're eating reasonably well and training well, then you can't do a huge amount more.

    I can PM a prescription for cake if you wish.

    Im eating as well as i can with the constraints i have. So theres nothing specific i can do about it? other than to just keep doing as im doing
    I just know if you want to make your legs bigger do squats,shoulders means presses in general. But theres nothing i've seen for this particular area of the body. So is it actually just a case of keeping everything going and let it sort itself out?

    fairly sure exercise doesn't make your waist bigger only weight gain (that's not muscle) will

    Your waist probably wont increase much, unless you put on fat. Buy jeans with a larger waist that will fit your thighs and get a belt.
