There are many stubborn parts of the body people want to target and shrink, especially armpit fat. When it comes to fat loss, spot reduction can be difficult, so channeling certain healthy habits that will help you burn fat all over is important. This means eating a healthy diet while at a calorie deficit, strength training, and performing regular cardio. These three must-dos will help melt any excess fat right off. The key here is to drive as much blood flow to the area you want to focus on in order to increase lipolysis—the breakdown of triacylglycerol into fatty acids and glycerol—and build muscle to tone the area. So we've put together a quick daily workout to help you get rid of armpit fat. The best part? It will take just 10 minutes of your time.

Choosing exercises that work your upper lats and the long head of the triceps is the way to go, and this routine highlights just that. Grab a pair of dumbbells, and check out the below workout to get rid of armpit fat. Set a timer for 10 minutes, and perform as many sets of the following back to back.
