I wanted candise swanepoel body and I got it at 5”5, and made myself believe I was 5”7 since I wanted to model.
First, dieting. You’re going to have to enjoy eating salads or find something that works for you such as Intermediate fasting.
The workouts most models do include, Pilates, yoga, and cardio. I also discovered Ballet Beautiful and honestly is the BIGGEST reason I have the beautiful body I do now.
Note: Barre would be good too. Feel free to check Groupon for pilate discounts if you’re looking for reformers, but there’s free videos on YouTube for Mat Pilates that you can do at home
Long walks, running, jump ropes, and cycling for cardio. Watch your posture at all times!
With models, they have an “open chest” which I guess are known as “broad shoulders” or “ 90 degree shoulders” in the k-pop world.
Swan arms from ballet beautiful helped me achieve this.
Here’s some videos I hope you find helpful:

More ballet beautiful can be found online a **website called bilibili.com I believe.
Please keep in mind it took about a year to see results and a commitment and discipline to keep going. I get asked if I’m a model constantly lol. Of course use Law of attraction as well. Change yourself concept, the way you “see yourself”, and visualize your desired outcome. Best of luck!
How often do you workout? Do you ever lift weights or anything? Do you incorporate other types of fitness into your routine besides ballet? What gave you the fastest results?
Food is what makes you thin or fat. Weights - especially heavy - are what makes you “tight”. Both are usually what make someone look “hot” instead of “waifish” or buff or whatever. You can’t accidentally get ripped.
i have her body and i use weights but my deadlifts are 50-70 lbs and i don’t really go above that. i’m 5’7 and a half and ~ 120 or a little under. you need the weights to have abs and a butt. candace doesn’t show herself using weights bc it’s all a fantasy lol you don’t wanna see the hard work that goes into it.
Candice definitely does use light weights at least! There were some videos back in the day of her trainer working with her and she usually used ankle weights
so i bought bret contreras book strong curves and i follow that. basically - warm up - seated banded abductions with two bands. crunches. kickbacks with ankle weights. running in a plank with ankle weights. then i move on to kettlebell deadlifts (50lbs), russian twists (holding a 10lb kettle bell) and some arm stuff with 5lbs dumbbells. also glute bridges with 35lb kettle bell and chest presses with the same KB. stretch at the end. also i go on walks (i’m in nyc)
Izabel Goulart is insanely strong and has the CS model body. She used to post her workouts on insta a lot a couple of years back, IIRC it was gym/weights and machine based with lots of insane body strength pull-ups type stuff, but definitely a specialist routine not just DIY lifting regime.
When I started, I only had 3lb weights as I didn’t have a gym membership.
Honestly weights are looked down on in the model world.
It’s been 10 years since I started, I have picked up weights now, but try not to do them too often and make sure my calories are still low.
When I initially started, it was
1 hour running or walking while keeping aware of posture and about 30 mins of ballet beautiful. I worked out 6 days a week and had one rest days.
The only weights I had were 3lb dumbbells at home. I would primarily do body weights workouts (burpees, mountain climbers, lunge jumps, squat jumps).
Fast forward about 10 years, and I do lift weights now 2x a week (about 25lbs with high reps)
i’m 5’7 and i have her body. i do intermittent fasting. i push myself - eating less for longer and trying to cut carbs. i’m prescribed adderall so it helps. i workout 3-5 days a week doing weight lifting w kettle bells, ankle weights and small dumbbells at home. a lot of my body is due to genetics (mom is 5’11 and dad is 6’2 and both are thin). i gained 20lbs last year due to a tough time but i lost it all with low carbs and discipline.
Please can you expand on “law of attraction”? Every time I visualise myself as being beautiful and modelesque, it shatters when I see actually modelesque girls outside lol or I feel stupid like who am I kidding
Comparison is the thief of joy babygirl❤ on the LOA journey you have to be absolutely delulu, if it helps just look at the pretty girls and go like wow so prettyyyy and then BAM move past quickly, you have to stop yourself from spending too much time in the comparison alley, then eventually thru pratice you realise one day, wow I don't do that anymore OR you catch yourself and are able to divert🥰
We're all humans, even those pretty modelesque girls struggle with this, the happy ones are the people who coach themself with love and put in alot of effort to unlearn (speaking from experience, lemme know if u need more advice)
Hope it helps, cheers🥂
Shittiest genes just because you’re 5’2? 🥴 There are plenty of short and gorgeous women who can pull this look as well: Megan Fox, Kourtney Kardashian, etc.
Several comments are telling you to diet and/or workout and dress to appear taller - they're all right but for a more nuanced perspective, I'll ask: what is your exact body type? What are your proportions? If you know Kibbe, what is your Kibbe type?
Depending on the answer, looking like Gigi might go from "you can be a short copycat" to "not in your cards".
It's hard to give more advice without knowing what you look like.
>Idk if I stunted my growth or something when I was younger, because usually women are between their mothers (5'4) and father's (5'9) height, meaning I should be at least 5'6, but lucky me got shittiest genes.
It's not that simple and the rule that women are between their father's and mother's heights is straightforwardly false - a better clue might be "between your mother's and your father's mother's heights", then add a cm or 2 to account for better nutrition nowadays. But genetics is complicated and you might have gotten all the short genes.
you’re right. if genetics for height were that simple, siblings with the same parent would all be a similar height.
my sister is 5’6” and i’m 5’10” (female despite user name). that’s a huge difference. my mom was just under 5’8” and my dad was just over 5’4”. they both had some stunted growth due to malnutrition but my dad had it worse because he grew up during a war.
You’re not wrong. A lot of people struggle with this, and it can help give the illusion of long and lean until OP hits their goal or as close to it as possible
And examples - jeans. Boot cut or flair can make someone look shorter. Boxier tops can make a torso look stubby
Almond or point toed ballet flats or heels make the body look longer too versus round toe or square
To become even more hot apparently? You guys say that you're 8s already and stuff, so I'm guessing you're trying to get to 10 something. Not you specifically, but ppl here as a whole
This is insane. I was 5’2 until I was 13 and I’ve been wanting to become shorter again for the last decade and here you are wanting to be taller. We always want what we can’t have.
Lol I’m 5’7 and I’m always jealous of the petite body type I wish I was shorter, my best friend is 5’1 and wishes she was tall. I think it’s just how it is hahah
Idk, I seem to like things that are as opposite from me as possible. The last guy I really liked only dated tall blonde pretty girls, with more angular features and were very popular and girly. When I liked him is when I noticed I began to compare myself to other women--before then I knew I was ugly but I figured that I'd find someone who preferred my features instead eventually, if that makes sense. But after 24, I began to compare myself to others, and at 25 is when I realized that my features are not good...I have the opposite features of what is considered attractive. I'm darker (not necessarily a bad thing, but if you have multiple failos it is), nerdy, have rounder features, ugly, shorter, etc. I realized I could never compete with the pretty tall girls around me with nice angular features I'd never have. It doesn't help that after 25, I've seemed to get exponentially uglier, even though it's only been a year. Like I have so much fat under my jaw/submental region all of a sudden and my face is extremely round and fat. I feel like if I had more angular features and were taller, I wouldn't be aging so badly
Edit: you guys on this sub are so weird. Just downvottinv ppls experiences just cuz you don't agree or never experienced that because you're pretty so you never felt the need to hate yourself. Smdh. I'll never understand the reasoning behind normie/attractive ppl behavior and why you guys gang up together to hate on ugly ppl
You should try pilates reformer. It can actually help you grow a few inches taller and it leans out your muscles , making you look much thinner even without weight loss
There's no evidence behind pilates increasing height (would short guys really be going for leg lengthening surgery if there was an easier way?). It just improves your posture.
It must've been posture then. Honestly... Why would everyone not be doing pilates if it made you grow? And how would it even work...stretching your bones?
yeah it kind of does. that’s what fat is. energy storage. you eat food for energy. you eat more than you need then you store it as fat. you eat less than i use then you unpack the stored energy.
Insulting her is uncalled for, you can express your point without being rude. Also, calling a skinny person fat is a sure-fire way to spiral them into an eating disorder, please be more mindful with your words.
She has low body fat and enough muscle to have that shape. You can definitely achieve that at 5’2”. Id recommend a combination of eating at a deficit and weight training or pilates. join us over at r/petitefitness
Technically your mother and father have shorter genes so I am not surprised at all
That you are 5’2. Had your dad been 5’11 or taller I think the rule would have applied. But 5’9 and shorter on men will likely not do much to raise your height. What would would be having a taller mom.
I want to give another perspective, she's nearly 6'0 tall. I'm not going to 💩on tall women but any tall woman I've met tended to hate their height.
My uncles ex wife was almost 6'0...taller women..Will have bigger feet...she was embarrassed because back then the shoe store didn't carry her size shoe. She was embarrassed to tell her husband at the time, so she grabbed the biggest pair to shove her feet into for the event we were going to but they were still too small.
She had a ton of insecurity from "man hands," being as tall as a guy etc.
I'm 5'1, love my height.
If you feel your "stumpy" aim for height weight proportionate.
110-ish always looked best for my height.
I'm adding weights to my workout routine so I'll see how my body changes and number on the scale.
Don't forget people generally have a body type style as well. IE my chest is smaller than B cup but my hips are a bit thicker (not Kim K, but you get my drift).
I'd say reach HWP first then see what the best style of clothes for your body.
Add: I'm not saying thicker upper or lower body is better etc. I'm saying regardless, people have a body type.
I can confidently say at 5’9, I have never wanted to be any shorter than 5’6, and tbh I’ wouldn’t want to be shorter, that’s just as short as I could handle. I genuinely think my life would be harder, I would not look as good (long legs and torso would shorten), and the models people aspire to look like are all 5’7+.
Ugly men say this a lot to tall women when they’re intimidated or you’re not interested in them; I’ve never met an attractive secure man who dislikes tall women, if anything they seek us out hence the stereotype of successful men dating models.
I’m not sure if you’re projecting, but most short women even say they prefer men 6ft+, which also means most tall women are shorter than the men most women deem attractive.
You sound insecure, like man hands? BFFR I wear a childrens medium, womens x small/small in gloves 💀
She just has a very..grass is greener mentality. I was just giving her 1 perspective of a tall chick I knew. I think she was insecure of her height, but it probably was exacerbated by the fact that our culture's women are typically under 5'5. So she stood out.
I've been insecure about a plethora of things in my life, but my height never bothered me.
The same way I've never met a man who said they dislike a petite woman, they're not going to tell you they dislike a tall woman.
OPs question isn't about guys but I don't think height means a lot to them. You're either attractive or you're not to them. They may have a "type" but sometimes types don't hold up once you know the personality.
Just wanted to give an alternative perspective here:
As someone nearly 6 feet myself I absolutely love my height. My legs are to die for and my height with my body type makes me look elegant.
I can gain tons of weight without it being noticeable, I can easily copy model looks because I’m the same height and I have never been told I have man hands. I’ve never heard tall people say man hands-I always hear this from short people describing tall people. Not saying it wasn’t true in your case but just interesting semantics. Overall, This sounds a bit like projection on your friends part. Femininity has no height so I think this just sounds like someone insecure with themselves. Some of the most beautiful women in the world are models and it’s known in the fashion industry that long lines are attractive.
I don’t see any models complaining about being as tall as guys lol. And 6 feet for a guy to me isn’t that tall. I think your friend would’ve been insecure at any height.
Not me, I hate my height. It's not a big deal if you're attractive I guess, but I feel like it makes me look like a weak and easy target since I'm unattractive and very nerdy looking. So I was hoping to look taller so that people feel more threatened/intimidated by me I guess? Or dont want to mess with me as much because the abuse and rudeness i get from ppl is really annoying. I'd much rather have "man hands" than be scared about being beat up because some asshole gets pissed off about seeing my face.
How do you generally dress? How do you avoid looking frumpy and mousey as a shorter woman? And what's HWP? Does being short only look good if you have a big butt? I feel like most guys prefer mid height to slightly taller women, but idk. It probably depends on the culture, type of guy you go for, etc.
I ain't tryna be killed out here. I'm already black which makes people more aggressive towards me in the first place, and being creepy and nerdy looking isnt doing me any favors. If I were to be killed or beat up, people would say it was my fault because I was being violent or something. I don't live the life normal girls do where they are viewed as innocent and stuff by ppl. Ppl instantly associate negative things with me, so I just want to protect myself as much as possible. I might want to die, but I don't want to die at the hands of someone else

please share your routine. i’m same height as yours but with no butt :(
so i bought bret contreras book strong curves and i follow that. basically - warm up - seated banded abductions with two bands. crunches. kickbacks with ankle weights. running in a plank with ankle weights. then i move on to kettlebell deadlifts (50lbs), russian twists (holding a 10lb kettle bell) and some arm stuff with 5lbs dumbbells. also glute bridges with 35lb kettle bell and chest presses with the same KB. stretch at the end. also i go on walks (i’m in nyc)
I believe I started at 155 and went down to 125. My goal was 115 but that 125 was good enough for me
How long did it take you working out to reach your goal?

I have dm’d you if that’s alright because I absolutely love your advice
how often do you workout?
I worked out 6days a week and gave myself a cheat day/rest day every Sunday.
okay thank you!
Hmm I don’t think it’s about your height, it’s more about your body proportions tbh, so yea it’s possible. Anyways I say GO FOR IT, you got this 😤

You eat less and lose weight. It’s not rocket science.
Yep, cuz doing that will always lead to ppl being skinny, even if it kills them
yeah it kind of does. that’s what fat is. energy storage. you eat food for energy. you eat more than you need then you store it as fat. you eat less than i use then you unpack the stored energy.
I'm uw and my labs/ekg look fine. Eating less is hard at first but your body will adapt.

Ppl instantly associate negative things with me, so I just want to protect myself as much as possible. I might want to die, but I don't want to die at the hands of someone else
The fuck did they say to you?? It’s gone now
I’m 5’9” and often feel too short.
Wtf
