what are good exercises for love handles?

First of all, love handles are where the body stores excess bodyfat and are not muscle.  The best thing to do to reduce the size of love handles is diet and cardiovascular exercise.  There is no such thing as spot reduction of a body part.  Exercises that work the obliques (the muscle found under the love handles) will only cause the muscle to get larger, while not reducing the amount of fat in that area, making your love handles look larger.  The best thing you can do is just try to do more aerobic exercise combined with an overall strength building program which will effectively increase your resting metabolism and burn more fat (including your love handles).

Forget about doing specific exercises to tone up a certain area.  There is no such thing as spot reduction.  Love handles are just a way that the body stores excess body fat.  To lose or decrease the size of your love handles you need to lose body fat in general.  There is no way to lose body fat in a specific area (thats what I mean as no such thing as spot reduction).\n\nYour best bet is a good exercise program that combines cardiovascular exercise with restistance exercise, preferably on seperate days.\n\nIf you try to do specific exercises to strengthen the obliques (the muscle which lie directly under your love handles), all you'll end up doing is increasing the size of the obliques while having not changed the size of the love handles at all.  As a result your love handles will just look bigger!

The only way to reduce love handles is to reduce your overall body fat level. Unfortunately many people have certain limited areas where fat tends to deposit first and go away last. There is nothing you can do about this. It is controlled by genetics and may change with age. You may be able to make it look beter by developing the underlying muscles. A good all round weight training program coupled with a reasonable diet is the best plan. \nAnother exercise that affect the underlying muscles are hanging, twisting knee or leg raises. I'd recommend doing ses of high reps (50-100 or more).

Dumbbells are good and don't take up very much space and are inexpensive (the ones with handles and removable plates). Get an adjustable bench to go with it, and you can get an excellent workout. \n\nBodyweight exercises are also very good. I just finished a routine doing nothing but pushups, situps, pullups, and squats (bodyweight). You can add some of these in with dumbbells to get more variety from your workout.

There is no site specific way of losing fat... the old myth about working your abs to burn belly fat isn't true. To get rid of love handles, you need to lose overall fat. That happens with exercise and watching your diet. \n\nThe most effective way to lose fat is aerobic exercise in the "moderate" fat-burning range, ideally first thing in the morning before you eat. When you wake your body is ready to burn fat and your levels of growth hormone are highest at that time. Later in the day it can take up to 30 minutes just to put your body into a fat-burning mode. \n\nAnother overlooked way to burn fat is by lifting weights. Skeletal muscle has very high caloric needs... almost twice that of adipose (fat) tissue. Put on a little muscle and you will burn calories all day even at rest. Be aware that skeletal muscle weighs more, so with this approach you may see your weight increasing while your body fat is melting away. Not realizing this often stresses folks who think they should be losing weight as a measure of fitness. Forget the scale, look in the mirror and you will be happy.\n\nYou are welcome to look at my 360 Blog of September 10 for more detailed ideas.\n\nAloha

The term 'love handles' refer to excess fat around the waist, usually resting just above the hips (at each side of the body).  They are called 'love handles' as they provide a partner with something to hold on to (when they hug you, etc).  It's a light-hearted term.  Love handles usually only infers minor excess fat on the body, not huge amounts.  Which is why a few weeks in the gym might get rid of them fairly quickly.

Lunges are really good for legs & your bum.  I like Shape's "Bikini Body" or a title similar to that.

Situps or lay flat on your back arms above your head and feet straight, slowly raise your arms and upper torso, along with pulling your legs up, stay level and use your stomache muscles to hold you in that position for five seconds, go back flat slowly while flexing your stomache muscles. Try 10 reps, then see how you feel. Good Luck!

Abdominal Crunch\nThese are excellent for strengthening the abdominal muscles and reducing a protruding stomach. Lie on the floor. Hold your legs at a 90-degree angle with your lower legs parallel to the floor. (You can also place your legs over a bench or a piece of furniture.) With arms at your side (or on shoulders or behind ears as in the curl-ups), inhale slowly as you raise your shoulder off the floor, forcing your chest muscles toward your legs. Pull your hips upward, hold for a second, then exhale slowly and roll down to the starting position. Do up to twenty-five repetitions.

Try this one it works.  Lay on or back arms out to side and knees drawn up. Put your feet together and make big figure eights in the air  with them. I know this sounds silly but it tightens those muscles. i mean swing your feet to the side down and then around and up and over to the other side. A big loop on each side.  do it every day as many as you can.
