Good workouts for love handles?

Options
Mine seem to be the hardest to shift and lose the inches off and although I am now in smaller clothes I still get a muffin top!!!
Does anyone know any good workouts/workout DVDs that will help with this area? I know I can't target areas and I don't want to, but it'd be good to get it shifted!

    Khall...there are so many resources online....much of the Insanity and P90X workouts are online as well...look there first....but remember...diet has a huge role in your success as does targeted workouts....

    Any kind of cardio while maintaining a healthy calorie deficit. That's really it. Sorry, there is no magic exercise. I wish there was. My love handles are very stubborn as well!

    You may be able "shift" around the fat a little by increasing muscle mass, but the love handle area is the toughest. Any kind of comprehensive core workout will build the muscles in that area. Check out the Beachbody programs.

    Again, the only real way to get rid of them is to lose body fat through controlling "calories in" and exercising. As you know it takes time.

    So basically stick at what I am already doing? I knew it was too good to be true to think there was a magic cure ;)

    Love handles suck. Once I get rid of them they are never welcome upon my hips again.
