Yeah this seems to be trending.

Honestly though, if you're looking to get toned, do a set of exercises every day. I don't know how physically fit you are but this is what I do.


* 30 push-ups
* 1 minute and 30 seconds of leg bicycles
* 70 crunches
* 2 minute plank, arms 10 inches apart
* 70 squats
* 60 jumping jacks
* 30 lunges on each legThat's just without equipment, I have a set of weights I use to and a pull-up bar.
I use the weights to do lawnmowers, ammo-cans, tricep-extensions, and basic curls.

Yeah, upper push-up position.

If you have a pull-up bar, get on it and start dead hanging. You can have a overhand grip or underhand grip, whichever feels more comfortable and works better. Pull yourself up from the dead hang where your chin reaches above the bar. Congrats, your first pull-up. However, you can not kip or sway to get your chin above the bar, otherwise it doesn't count.

If you can't make a full pull-up or don't have a pull-up bar, find something to latch onto where your feet don't touch the ground, like a ceiling rafter or otherwise. The alternative would be to perform a 90 degree flexed arm hang, so you're not lifting yourself any higher, but you're holding yourself in position, like a plank, but for your arms.

lots of workouts you can find online that are specific to what you’re lookin for. best advice is to make sure you work out regularly and maintain a somewhat constant schedule. working out means nothing without a good diet to accompany it tho, so find some diets that fit your budget/taste
