What excercises can I do to get that area more defined?

Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single
She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.
You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.
The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.
That male V thing below the waist...

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
No, hes talking about the "v" shaped muscles that run down either side of the 6pack into the groin.
leg raises of various kinds, Also lying on you back and lifting your legs up to over your face (keeping them straight).
Those kind of exercises will tone the muscles up a bit, but I'm afraid the only real way to get more defination is to cut down your overall body fat %
good luck, Cure.

"Tone" usually refers to building some muscle mass and reducing bodyfat%, a small recomposition if you will. When most people say "tone" they have the correct image in their mind, but the word itself doesn't mean much.

This is a good response. Most guys will hold the "spare tire" around their lower abdomen... so this will hide the V. Getting lean, like in the single digit bf% is the best way to have this muscle be visible.Cure said:
“The 22 Psychological Triggers That Make Women Chase You… Starting Tonight”
Forget the cash, the cars, and the chiseled jawlines. Female desire operates on a completely different frequency. Primal. Subconscious. Triggers that bypass her logic and hit her on a gut level. Most guys are totally blind to them.
I know because I was one of them. The overthinking. The paralysis. The silent drive home kicking yourself for freezing up. Watching average guys walk away with the girl while you stood there stuck in your own head.
Then I decoded the psychology behind what actually makes women tick. 22 hard rules. Subtle behavioral shifts that rewired my entire reality. The anxiety evaporated. Women started leaning in. Investing. Chasing.
good point, its a stupid word.Kerpal said:
Should have said- "doing these kind of exercises will increase muscle mass/density, leaving more muscle to show through once body fat is reduced"
Can "tone" mean that? its easier to type

I think it's at least partly genetics and the underlying bone structure of your hips.
I say this because seen guys with at least a partial bear gut that sort of have the v-shape, while at my leanest I was cut enough to have full six pack abs and you could see the ridges in my pecs from the muscle fiber bundles. I didn't even have a hint of the v at this time.

Thanks for the replies.
I did about 150 hanging leg lifts yesterday & I think it helped.
My bodyfat % is pretty low...I'm 5'8" & 150 lbs.

commonly known as "v-taper"... the back in general should be worked out using exercises that promote thickness and width. the v-taper emphasizes width, and using the lats, which flare out from underneath the arm pit to the lower back (generally). exercises for width would be lat pulldowns, pullups/chin ups, cable rows, machine rows, and deadlifts are also a great mass builder for your entire back. also, I'm a powerlifter and have a bit of lovehandles, I still have a bit of V-taper. When I drop more weight in this area, and by doing those exercises, your back looks bigger while your waist gets smaller... here is a good article, even though Dorian Yates' back is ridiculous...
