    rows are good for this. I lay on my stability ball stomach down, get some dumb bells, and lift your elbows back squeezing your shoulder blades together. You Can feel it! good luck!

    You can't target it with exercise. You need to burn off more fat than you take in.

    You can't really target fat burn, but toning up with the suggested exercises definitely helps as you lose weight overall!

    Just keep working at it and be consistent with your calorie deficit. Genetic predisposition is why your back fat is coming off last.

    Last winter I was working with a running coach. I have back fat as well and asked her about how to get rid of it. She told me that you cannot spot reduce, you must lose fat and it will come off all over (some places faster than others). I was not REAL overweight but when I started losing, I noticed my back fat is slowly coming off as well. :drinker:

    Hang in there and you will see an improvement!!!!! :love:

    My back fat used to be what kept me in check with my weight....whenever it started creeping up on me, I knew it was time to slow it down a lil....NOW, the backfat has taken over! With some people it's the last thing to go, be patient and keep doing what you doing!
