What is the best way to get rid of fat around your middle and back fat?  Thank you. Donnamarie.

There are no magic tricks to lose back fat or belly fat. Why? Because that is how the human body works, you cannot tell your body to lose fat in one body part, but not in the other.

How to lose back fat the wrong way Sure, some “experts” will tell you that certain exercises reduce back fat, but it is not true. Some exercises can certainly strengthen your back muscles (obviously a good thing), but there is no exercise that can reduce back fat.

How to lose back fat the right way The only way to lose back fat or belly fat for that matter is to lose weight. Yes, you heard me correctly; you need to lose overall weight. When you lose weight, you lose belly fat, back fat, neck fat, thigh fat, etc.

Now, if for some reason you have more fat on your back and belly than on other parts of your body, even if you lose weight, there is a chance that you will still end up with more fat on your back than, say, on your thighs, but overall, your body fat percentage will be lower, which is a good thing.

The bottom line on how to lose back fat or belly fat Do not look for a quick fix. Quick fixes sound good, but they do not work. Diet and exercise always work. Changing your eating habits, learning about healthy food choices and how to stay physically active, is the way to go.
