I have about 11 to 12% body fat and cant get rid of my love handles i dont get it, i run every day(except sunday) but i just cant get rid of my love handles. I have the outline of a six pack and i am pretty thin, this is a trait from my dad that i want to get rid of. so are their any exercises for this. My mom says vinegar kills fat but it tastes bad and is a last resort. So are their any exercises that i can do that can help me.

Ps. how can i strengthen my lower back

Love handles are mostly diet. Too much cardio can cost muscle.
You can strengthen your lower back with supermans, hyperextensions, light goodmornings, deadlifts , squats and lots of other exercises. Why don't you try one of the FT workout plans. They cover the whole body.
Welcome to FT and good luck.

lay off the sidebends if your doing any, because they tend to cause the underlying muscles of lovehandles to bulk up
