Strengthening the deep core especially the transverse abdominis, pelvic floor, diaphragm, and muscles around your spine can help you hold your abdomen more supported and improve rib/pelvis alignment.

during puberty, your skeleton including your ribs and pelvis is still developing, but its shape is driven mostly by genetics, hormones, and normal growth, not by ab exercises HOWEVER what core training can change is your muscles and posture.

If you previously had your ribs flared forward, better posture can make the lower ribcage look less wide from the front. That can create a noticeably more “cinched” appearance without the rib bones actually becoming smaller
