Toned arms with muscle definition.
For ages I was following the mantra of low weights high reps, for muscle endurance, fat loss and toning. But nothing really changed. So, just for fun, to see what would happen, I upped the weights and dropped the reps. Almost instantly, within a week or two, I saw a change. My arms became more toned with more muscle definition - not bulk.
So my top tip to you is this: if you want to see your muscles at rest, forget the low weights, high reps and get lifting heavy. Go for between 5-8 reps. Body weight exercise will begin the change but they will only go so far.
