toning is nonexistent. you either have muscle or not and their is either fat over it or not. bottom line, build muscle lose fat.

i think people use the word 'toned' to mean 'defined'.Originally Posted by magicmatt
to 'tone up', you need to do cardio to burn off fat; this will leave you looking defined.

because it provides more of a "pump" which makes their muscles temporarily bigger.Originally Posted by eagles22
