    I vote push ups, or rowing. :bigsmile: We may hate them, but they work! My *Shudders* "back tits" are nearly gone thanks to plenty of push ups (and pilates!!). I no longer look like I'm smuggling tires in the back side of my bra. Good luck, lady!

    LOL! I have this problem too. You can't really spot reduce, but you can work on them. Try side-alternating crunches. Or, my personal trainer has me do these side-bends... stand up, hands behind head, and do a side "crunch", reaching down to touch your leg. Try the "fitness" or "self" magazine website, they have great tutorials!

    I absolutely recommend P90 (not P90X) or Slim in 6 to help in those areas. I am more of a P90 fan but both have done wonders for me in the past. I love looking back at photos and watching them progressively go away with these programs.

    i noticed tht was basically the last place i started gaining weight, and its one of the first places im losing, along with my face and chest. ive just been hitting up the cardio 5 days a week, and doing strength training *all over* 3 times a week.
