    Since you can't spot reduce, a mixture of cardio and strength training/ body weight exercises will help with that. Especially if you are already at a good body weight, you'll want to do more strength training to build muscle to burn more.

    From what I've read, you can't spot reduce any part of your body. Basic cardio helps. I've read this many times on different sites. :cry:

    I think that back fat is like belly fat it's about your overall body fat. When you lose more weight you will lose that fat too.

    Try swimming, Its one of the best workout you can do. Low Impact on joints and its like a all around body work out. When i was swimming full time i had no back fat. Great fat buster :)

    Well I have a personal trainer and I told her that i wanted to target my back fat. So this is what she has me doing. Rubber band scapula pull, row machine, lat pulldowns

    Like others have said, you can't spot train. But try adding some back training like lat pull downs, reverse crunches (kind of like those ab machines but bending back at the hips instead of forward.), rows, etc.
    This site is pretty helpfull looking, but use weights that work for you obviously. :happy:

    Reduce your overall bodyfat through calorie deficit and ideally, exercise.

    Strength training helps, but you can't spot reduce. Once i started working my entire body with strength training and eating healthy it definitely decreased. Now I'm trying to lose it again after having my son.
