Hi! Does anyone know of good exercises to reduce the fat between the chest and the armpits?

I'm currently doing the 30DS with cardio (running). Will that help?

Thanks!

    You can't spot reduce, sorry. You will need to reduce your overall body fat percentage (which running will help with) to achieve what you want. However, you will still be limited by your genetic distribution of body fat. Some people tend to have fattier bits between the chest and armpits. Other people tend to lose weight there first. It'll depend on your body.

    Both the previous comments have made good points, even if the second might not have expressed it well. You can't spot-reduce fat.

    Are you sure you're wearing the right size of bra? Overspill at between chest and armpit is indeed likely to be part of your breast not fitting in your bra. Go to www.bravissimo.com and look at their fit guide.
