whats your favorite excercise for that back fat

Lazynella

I'm curious as to what moves you all.are.loving for that toned strong looking back? I like push ups and incline rows. What are toying doing to target those "back boob" muscles?

Assuming that you don't mean spot reducing, but rather muscle strengthening..

I LOOOOVE lifting for my back muscles. Love love love. 

I love rows. Rows Rows Rows. One arms dumbbell rows, bar [bent over] rows, upright rows. 

I love them all. 

I like really creative pushups, or I get bored of them. I really only enjoy tricep push ups, but other than that I like the weird push-ups like komodo dragons

I love rows too. However, the only thing I have noticed that actually gets rid of the back fat is lots of cardio...

<div>The only thing that gets rid of back fat is a healthy, calorie deficit diet.  You cannot spot reduce fat.  You can tone muscle, and building muscle certainly helps with weight loss, but diet is the way to go.</div>

Yes, ann.oskar. I should have added healthy eating to the cardio and rows...

Healthier eating definitely, but I've also had a great amount of success with the 30 day shred DVD by Jillian Michaels. Can't recommend it enough!

Swimming is the best way for me to burn calories, and tone my arms, shoulders, and back. Plus it's a great non-impact exercise for my non-running days.

SERIOUSLY! This changed my life. By the end of the month I'd lost 17 lbs and tons of inches. I am seriously stronger than I've ever been before. I suplemented this with dieting and restricting my sugar intake to 7gm daily which if you've ever tried to do it is very hard. I HIGHLY recommend her workouts. All of them. I even have the thigh & butt one and that one WORKS. Back fat gone, and I my stomach no longer pokes through clothes!
