Hello Ladies:

I have some bulging on my lower back, when I put a bra on it is even worse. Does anyone have any exercises to get rid of this??

    You can't spot reduce fat. No specific exercise will target an area for loss. Your body decides where the fat comes off when. Continue to do a combo of cardio and resistance training. But, most importantly, watch what you eat, and make sure you consume less than you burn (through living and exercise combined).

    Sadly, you can't really spot reduce. If I'm wearing a shirt that's a bit more fitted I tend to use an open busted camisole so I can wear my own bra. It smooths things out.

    It's fat, you have to lose fat all over to get rid of it. There are no spot reducing exercises to target fat.

    So don't wear a bra. That solves this problem while you're working on cutting back on the amount of body fat you have.
