Jeez, mine are 18" but I can’t imagine being any wider than you, maybe I just have “8th grade girl” lats.

Is everyone else reading this with a Colin Farrell accent in their head?
Its not that simple in my opinion.
Ahzaz, your body seems to carry its LBM in your lower body and hip area, likely due to being an active overweight kid through childhood with possibly limited upper body training.
I have seen this in a lot of south asian men who have trouble building upper body mass and go through life with a tapered frame. But age is on your side and as long as you train properly and eat properly through puberty this will not be the case with you.
You’ll have to add serious upper body work to your squats (don;t stop these as these are the single most important movement for anyone starting out) pullups (and pulldowns), and BW dips are your friend. Pullovers (DB or nautilus) will actually significantly widen your rib cage (at your age) over time. Do not neglect these or puberty will come and go and your basic shape will stay the same, as your body “may” preferentially develop your hip, waist and lower body.
And yes, what OG said is also correct. He will build significant muscle as he goes through with puberty but the right stimulus is also needed.

Great job. You have my ideal physique, ridiculously strong while maintaining an athletes build. I was wondering if you would mind posting some info on your training.
i dont wanna turn this into ‘rate my hang clean’ but i never seen myself doin a clean before so im just wondering what you’s think. . (technique not weigh smart arses) i think im throwing my hips too far into it. . i used to think it was grand and have taught it well to others . . but judging by this THEIR cleans look better than mine! oooopsie some trainer i am haha

Cool… I knew a good few runners out in DCU, great sport set up out there.
Keep up the good work man!
the path of the bar should be almost vertical, you bring it out a little too far. keep it close to your body

I’m no expert, but it looks like you’re using hip momentum to muscle the weight up with your arms; swinging it up, like an exaggerated reverse curl.
Think of your arms only as a link.
Like a rope connecting your shoulders to the bar.
The movement should be vertical.
From the starting position, bar hanging at or just above knee level, explode upward, extending your hips and pulling with your back to start the motion.
As the bar makes contact at mid-thigh, accelerate the bar upward with your legs and back.
Your hips should reach full extension simultaneously with contraction of your calves and your traps (SHRUG the weight up) as you raise up on your toes.
The bar should be moving straight up (toes leaving the ground), allowing you to drop under it and (as feet land) back down into your squat position. As you drop down, swing your elbows under the bar to bring it to rest in the catch position.
Check this out for your clean:
media.crossfit.com/cf-video/CrossFit_BurgTrainingTheClean.wmv
…About exactly a minute in Burgener corrects a girl with a similar movement as yours. Too much hip swing and not enough upward momentum. Think jump and let your feet leave the ground. The end of that video is good too.
