I have been running and using my tred mill and I like the way I look now. The only problem that I can not seem to get rid of is my back fat. Down on the lower part of my sides and back. What exsersises can I do to get rid of that fat?

You can not spot reduce. Diet and exercise including weight training are the only fix. Welcome to FT. Fill out your profile and tell us about yourself.

Yeah, the back fat, it is in many cases very stubborn, and hard to lose. There is no way you can "target" it unfortunately, just keep to a good diet and exercise, and as your body sheds fat, when it gets lean enough, it will shed there also. Just be persistant, sometimes it seems like it is not working, that can be a very stubborn area, and your body will do all it can to keep its remaining fat stores, but as mentioned, persistance will pay off.
