I dont have love handles, but back rolls, or what some may say is back fat. Any suggestions on how to get rid of back fat/rolls? Any exercises?

hey! im 245 and im only 5'4. i want to get down to 130 please help!!

Shay | 04.30.09 - 5:00 pm

I never had a problem with my weight before...not even when i had my 2 kids...I started to gain weight AFTER I had a tubal surgery done. My top weight has reached up to 160 lbs, but I fluctuate between 154 and 160. I am 5'7 and am not use to these extra pounds I have gained. I have been skinny all my life!

I just tried the excercise with the broom...I went down the first time and my entire back cracked so loud it sounded like it broke...lol...but once I finished with the whole excercise I was very amazed that I had actually felt it in my stomach area like I had done some sit-ups.

Patty | 04.28.09 - 2:33 pm

i ve seen ur both exercises,one with broom n other with hands high n lifting one leg n the arm ..i wil try these at home,i really appriciate ,,how gud programmes u ve,,

Nayab | 04.25.09 - 3:06 am

kayla,

You'll GET great results fast but...

You won't SEE RESULTS until you burn off the love handle fat with diet & exercise

Adrian Bryant | 04.15.09 - 8:25 pm

So if i do the exercise just like you did in the video, 3 times a week, when will i start to see results? and/or when will i see great results?

kayla | 04.14.09 - 11:32 pm

Stephanie,

You want to do 8-to-12 reps on each side or 16-to-24 reps total for 2-to-3 sets about twice a week

Adrian Bryant | 04.01.09 - 9:03 am

what are the reps and sets for this workout?

Stephanie | 03.31.09 - 11:40 pm

Ifigeneia,

Yes and look at this short video on getting a slimmer waist

Adrian Bryant | 03.24.09 - 7:24 pm

I am 5'5" Tall and weight 169 pounts. should i lose i weight in order to have a really small waist?

Ifigeneia | 03.24.09 - 6:13 pm

Ifigeneia,

The broom exercise helps some but you'll need to lose fat to make waist smaller

what's your weight and height?

ADRIAN BRYANT | 03.15.09 - 3:00 pm

Hi Adrian.your site is amazing.I get the butt that i wanted by doing the Jlo work plan.i may have a big and nice butt,but my waist is just invisible.my torso is just too straight and not at all curvy...do you think that this exercise can make my waist look like vida guerra's???

Ifigeneia | 03.15.09 - 1:09 pm

Mohammad,

Yes - watch your calories and eat high quality foods - see NowLoss.com/199 and do intervals and/or cardio - see NowLoss.com/i

Adrian Bryant | 03.02.09 - 5:11 pm

Adrian:

Thanks for that awesome site. So, in other words, start counting.

Mohammad | 03.02.09 - 4:59 pm

Mohammad,

It's DIET & CARDIO/INTERVAL related.

See NowLoss.com/50 to make the scale move

ADRIAN BRYANT | 03.01.09 - 11:34 am

Thanks for this great site,

My question:

I've been working out for around 2 years now. I'm Six Six and weight around 320lbs. I try to eat brown rice when I crave things, but man it aint easy. I've increased my strength manifold by working out 3 times a week, low carb and a lot of heavy weights. I can bench around 350 pounds. However, I haven't made any moves at the scale nor on my stomach. Is this all diet related?

Mohammad | 02.28.09 - 3:15 pm

Kayla,

Getting rid of stubborn fat at your low weight and height = Intense exercise and strict dieting so...

Adrian Bryant | 02.10.09 - 10:09 am

#55

Hey Adrian,
I really like your website and what your doing for people and how much you care and how you answer everyones questions.

So, I am six foot tall, in August I weighed in at 240, and now i am 160 but i still carry alot of fat in my lower back and love handles, I am going to start doing this exercise but I would like to know if you have any for the lower back?

Not looking to build alot of muscle or anything, just lean out a bit more, maybe shave off 10-20 more pounds

dkey36,

Yes - these small differences are normal and believe me...

You're the only one who notices

Adrian Bryant | 01.09.09 - 10:18 pm

#51

Hi Adrian
I am still loving your web site. I have been doing the broom exercise to help get rid of my love handles. I did not measure my waist line before starting; however, I did notice that my left side was actually smaller than the right side! Is it possible to see more of a difference on one side than the other?

dkey36@cableone.net | 01.09.09 - 5:03 pm

Kim Schamehorn,

The main thing you need to focus on is losing weight and since you already look good at 5-7 & 145 pounds...

You need to do this weight loss plan here to lose 20 pounds and it's going to take longer than a month because...

Normal weight people like you who are NOT overweight lose weight slower than overweight people so expect it to take anywhere for 2-to-4 months to reach 125 pounds and...

If you choose to incorporate fast weight loss workouts #1 and/or #2 into the weight loss plan I suggested for you above...

You'll burn fat and get tighter tummy hips and thighs at the same time and you will get tighter or firmer tummy hips and thighs within a month

Adrian Bryant | 01.07.09 - 7:40 pm

#49

hello, im gonna be starting some of ur many excercises tommorow...but have many questions,...first i should start off by saying,im 18years old, had a baby 18months ago, im 145lbs trying to loose 20lbs or better yet just loose inches and gain muscle,most on my tummy hips and thighs...it makes me feel fat because my skin isnt toned in those areas...im looking for excersizes to make them tighter in the next month...is ths possible??im in a size 9 or 11 and would like to be a size 4/5/or 6 by march break..how instantly do ur excercises work???

Teresa,

Your knees only need to be slightly bent and yes...

Keep your back straight and don't twist your back as you lean over

Adrian Bryant | 01.05.09 - 10:13 pm

#47

First of all I have to say that I'm so glad I found your site! I plan to use it to reach my goal.

I tried this broom exercise but I think I was doing it wrong. As I was bending to the side my lower back started hurting. I'm guessing I was using bad posture. Are the knees supposed to be straight or slightly bent? I'm guessing you need to do it with a straight back, right?

Thank you!

Teresa | 01.05.09 - 8:36 pm

#46

Jeeez. Just done this for the first time. I wouldn't have ever thought bending over holding a broom could be so knackering I'm used to doing an hour cycling 3 times a week, but this was intense. Can't wait to see the results.

Cheers Adrian!

Chris.

If I may,
i was just wondering why 2-3 times a week? Is it bad for your body, because thats what i hear..
Im pretty confused soo..

julia,

How much do you weigh exactly?

You may have to lose more weight (fat) to get your curvy body but...

The best thing you can do right now is...

Keep focusing on losing weight GREAT JOB on losing 40 pounds! and
Do body sculpting exercises at least 2-to3 times a week to help accentuate your curves.

Adrian bryant | 06.07.08 - 1:38 pm

#34

I recently lost 40lbs. My body is looking leaner but I'm losing my curves. Would like to lose 60 more pounds but keep it proportionate and not look like a boy! help!

julia | 06.06.08 - 11:18 pm

#33

nicole,

You should start off doing the workout in the video 2-to-3 times a week

Adrian bryant | 06.01.08 - 12:43 am

#32

is it 3 to 4 reps everyday for 3 days or 3 to 4 reps for the whole week?

nicole | 05.31.08 - 4:05 pm

#31

maddie ,

3 times a week at the most is best and do not do everyday because you wouldn't give your muscles time to rest and firm up

Adrian bryant | 05.17.08 - 8:42 am

#30

if you did this exercize more than 2 times a week, what would happen? would it be bad?

maddie | 05.16.08 - 10:45 pm

#29

sarah,

With the love handle broom exercise for your obliques - you don't use heavy weight - you do the opposite and...

Use lighter weight (a broom) for 2-to-3 sets of 16 reps (8 reps per side) and then you slowly work up to using lighter 2,3, or 5 pound dumbbells

Adrian Bryant | 05.16.08 - 9:55 pm

#28

lower reps and weights actually will add more to that area for me since im on a high protein diet!!( trying to bulid my legs) can you suggest another plan ? how many sets, and reps should i do? can i do them everyother day, i want to tone that area!I do abs, and lower back every other day, i would want to incorparte this to my workout! thanks, sorry if im asking too many questions! i like your website

sarah | 05.16.08 - 3:41 pm

#27

susie,

The most you can do this is 1-to-2 sets 4 times a week and make sure that each day you do this exercise you make it harder by adding more weight or reps

You have to give your body time to rest and heal

Adrian bryant | 05.05.08 - 7:50 am
