Any pounds that i put on goes to my tummy or face and i still have skinny arms and narrow shoulders. bad genetics?

We are different: People are different in where they put on weight. It is determined to some extent by genetics and to some extent by what we eat. Try eating less sugars and carbohydrates (bread, rice, pasta, potatoes) and you should lose some of the belly fat.
