Armpit Fat

Anybody else need help trimming armpit fat? I'm toned/toning everywhere else,15 pounds to goal, have even toned up my tricep chicken-bingo wings, but that armpit fat is stubborn.

I run 3-4 times a week 30-45 minutes, hit 3-4 45-55 min strength/cardio bootcamp classes a week (includes both free weight strength training and lots of traditional body weight-type calesthenics). Any specific alterations to push-ups etc., or other you would recommend? I have a pool and am wondering if there's any pool exercises I could be doing as well?

    It may not be armpit fat, it might be migrated breast tissue from wearing the wrong bra size.
    I had armpit fat when I was wearing a 32DD. Nothing got rid of it.
    I switched to a properly fitting 28FF bra and it's gone, nothing else has changed. The right fitting bra will allow your relocated breast tissue to go back where it belongs.

    You can't spot reduce fat, you just have to keep lowering your BF% until it comes off your sticky spots.
