Toning!

What's the best way to tone ya muscles, in various parts of ya body?

weight lifting. If you want BIG muscles, do less reps and more weight, but if you want more tone, than go more reps less weight.

Okay, this might sound really weird, but here's my method. I have a whole bunch of buckets of wheat sitting around the house. So what I do is I hold them up at about shoulder height for 30 seconds at a time. I do about 3 1/2-5 total minutes every day. It really tones the muscles.

you know you live in texas when you weight lift with buckets of wheat

thegremmy · 03-18-2002, 09:21 PM

*lift weights
*resistance exercises (usually more popular with the females --> they tend to suggest some in various teen magazines...i'd be DELIGHTED to show you some...however that would be impossible...unless you wanna come visit me??

)

okay, what about people who can't weight-lift, don't have access to weights or buckets of wheat?

SenorPapaCabasa · 04-03-2002, 09:35 PM

then do push ups( vertical push ups for triceps and normal horizontal push ups for chest and arms)

crunches for abs

up-downs for legs( put you hands behind your head, bend your knees and squat down, then jump as high as you can from this position.... you should really feel the burn after about 10-15)

for your calfs, stand flat footed and roll your feet up to where your standing on your tip toes

i would tell you what i bench, but then that'd be embarassing hahaha

yeah, those are good matt

invest in some free weights --> theyre not THAT expensive

or even better, those weights that go around your wrists/ankles
i want those--> they fit under pants and sweaters too so u can wear them without people knowing
