Dip in Chest?

cwbylance18 Posts: 3 Joined: 2004/06/24	2004/07/02, 01:05 AM Hello, Here's a picture I took tonight of my chest/abs: http://www.redlinex2.net/7 01 04.bmp I know I'm skinny, but why do I have a dip in the middle of my chest? Will that go away after I add more weight? My lower abs are starting to show through, but there's still fat on them. By changing my diet and continuing to work them out, will that dissapear? I'm 19, 140lbs (around that) by the way. Thanks! Lance

Some people's are more concave than others. His wasn't too noticable and our son's seemed more so when he was a baby but is now less noticable and most people wouldn't think anything of it, but they were still diagnosed with Pectus excavatum(it can be very noticable). It may be, as you said, you are thin, so as Hec mentioned, building some muscle up may do the trick, too. (Pectus excavatum is the medical name for an abnormality in the rib cage that results in a caved-in appearance of the chest. This condition is present at birth (congenital). Pectus excavatum is due to abnormal growth of the connective tissue joining the ribs to the breastbone (sternum).) -------------- Veda MISERY IS OPTIONAL ***When you are up to your ears in trouble, try using the part that is not submerged. ***The difference between a dream and a goal is a plan.
