Toning exercises?

[Anonymous]

What are some good exercises to tone my arms and butt, without bulking. I just want tone, not more muscle.

You want hi intensity cardiovascular exercises. A really great work out called M-100's incorporates your entire body and excels at burning fat without bulking muscle. You do a series of squat lunges, mountain climbers and squat thrusts as fast as you can with no time limit. It's amazing for you butt core and legs and you'll get the added benefit of toning your arms and shoulders with the squat lunges.

When thinking about toning your arms your triceps count for 2/3 of your definition so you want to focus more on pushing exercises.

Squats and lunges are also the best way to tone your butt legs and core to achieve a balanced figure.

Low weight and high reps. Anyway you look at it though you're going to gain some amount of muscle. You can't define something that does not exist. Though you shouldn't be afraid of gaining mass. It's not something that comes natural for most female body types and typically you need to train with the purpose specifically in mind to see noticeable gains.

Google some various training programs out there, one's with the female body in mind and your purpose (definition) then download it from a torrent sight such as thepiratebay.org

"Tone" requires gaining muscle. It's not about how much weight you use. It's about the rep range you use. If you can do more than 15 reps of something, your weights are too light and you won't benefit. Stick with the 15 rep range and you won't get bulky. If the last few reps you do are not almost impossible, then you are using weights that are too light.

Pilates, I love it, if you get the Windsor DVDs it teaches you how to do them the right way and the work outs are only about 20 miuntes. Even though your not moving around a lot you can feel the work out, and the results are worth it and quick if you stick to it! All you need is an exercise mat. I think it would be great for what you want to accomplish.

without joining a gym, the best workout for this woiuld be, roll a small mat up with some rope and have some rope tied to your waist and attach it to the mat, and while walking up the stairs, have a glass of water in each hand, run up the stairs as fast as you can, turn round and repeat as many times as possible, this will rapidly improve your but and tone your arms with out fail, good luck,x

You can be too picky and choosy, sometimes you just have to take the good with the bad and live with the results.

Squats, lunges, and burpees should do the trick.

Get some exercise bands and watch these instruction videos. They're really good and free and specifically related to toning.
