  Eat a clean diet. Eating clean simply means eating foods closest to natural form. Think fresh fruits, vegetables and lean means like chicken and turkey. Stay away from extra sugar, sodium &saturated fat. No amount of exercise is going to help you lose back fat or any other fat if you don't eat right.

  Lift weights to help lose back fat. Doing strength training exercises will help your body burn more fat overall. Deadlifts and Good-Mornings are great exercises for targeting the lower back muscles. Use extreme caution when performing them and do not use too much weight.

  Consume an adequate amount of protein every day. As a suggestion, try to aim for the number of grams in protein per day for each pound you weigh. (140 lbs = 140 grams of protein) Protein helps your muscles repair and rebuild. After a workout, consume a whey protein shake.

  Do at least 20-30 minutes of cardio immediately after a weight training session, or early in the morning, at least 3 times per week. High intensity cardio activities work best for fat blasting. If you're burning fat all over your body, you will start to notice a less amount of back fat.
