A small waist in proportion to your body shape is possible with consistent and dedicated exercising. High proportions of fat around the waist are a health danger signal; for example, people who have coronary artery disease are at increased risk of an early death if they have high waist fat levels.[1] Moreover, for women the waist is a sign of attractiveness; studies have shown that the waist to hip ratio (the evident curves that create an hourglass shape) are a better gauge of attractiveness than the size of a woman's breasts because it is suggestive of high fertility in biological terms.[2]
Although your shape is determined by genetics,[3] you can't blame your genes for not exercising or not eating well! A waist that measures between 32-35 inches (81-89cm) is considered overweight.[4] The good news is that it is possible to trim some weight from your waist, whatever your body shape.
