Sculpting an hourglass figure involves a combination of targeted exercises that focus on building muscle and reducing body fat in specific areas.

With consistent effort and a healthy lifestyle, you can enhance your natural curves. Here are seven exercises that can help you achieve an hourglass figure:

Squats

Squats are excellent for working the glutes, thighs, and core. To perform squats, stand with your feet hip-width apart, lower your hips down as if sitting in a chair, and then push through your heels.

Deadlifts

Deadlifts target the lower back, glutes, and hamstrings. Use proper form by keeping your back straight and lifting the weight using your hips and legs, not your lower back.

Lunges

Lunges help tone the thighs and glutes. Take a step forward with one leg, lower your body until both knees are bent at a 90-degree angle, and then push back up.

Side Planks

Side planks engage the oblique muscles, which are essential for achieving a defined waistline. Lie on your side and support your body with one forearm, keeping your body in a straight line.

Russian Twists

Russian twists target the obliques and help define your waist. Sit on the floor, lean back slightly, lift your feet off the ground, and twist your torso from side to side.

Hip Thrusts

Hip thrusts are excellent for building the glutes and enhancing the curve of your hips. Sit on the ground with your upper back against a bench and thrust your hips upward.

Cardio and High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT)

Incorporate cardio and HIIT workouts to burn overall body fat. This will help reveal the muscle definition you're building through targeted exercises.
