Exercises to get rid of your 'back fat'



Is your back fat preventing you from wearing strapless dresses? Try these exercises to get back at that extra flab.

Picture this: You're getting ready for a cocktail party and you've been dying to show off that sexy strapless LBD that you paid a bomb for. As you get into the dress and peer at yourself at various angles in the mirror, you can't help but notice some flab on your back, which looks very unflattering. 
 In fact, had you seen some other woman prancing around in a dress like yours with some back fat jutting out, you would be staring at her with disbelief and probably giggling at her with your girlfriends.  And so, you're left fuming at your misfortune, unable to wear your dress. You vow to get rid of that fat, but have no idea how to do so? Read on to find out:

Plank Drop
Begin by getting into a plank position by resting on your forearms. Your feet should be shoulder-width apart. Keep your abdomen focused by not moving your hips. Now, lower your chest towards the floor by squeezing your shoulder blades together. Maintain this for 10 seconds, pull the shoulder blades apart, thus creating a stretch in the mid-back. Undo the previous step and return to original position. Do 15 repetitions and gradually increase the number of sets.

Rear Lateral Raise
Hold dumbbells and bend forward at your hips such that the torso is parallel to the floor. Now let the dumbbells hang from the shoulders ensuring that the palms are facing each other. Keeping the torso stationary, raise the arms to the sides in line with the shoulders. Maintain this position for a few seconds and return to original position. Do 15 repetitions and gradually increase the number of sets.

Swiss ball Y Raise
Lie face down on a Swiss ball, keeping your back flat and chest lifted off the ball. Let your arms hang down with the palms facing each other. Raise your arms at a 30-degree angle such that there's a Y-shape formation in line with the body. Hold this position for 10 seconds and gently return to original position. Do 10 repetitions and gradually increase the number of sets.
