The way to tone your body is to do resistance training. Repetitive movements of 15-20 repetitions, 3 or 4 times (sets). For example, press-ups: doing 20 press-ups 3 times, twice a week would tone up your triceps, chest, and the front of your shoulders.
You need to use a weight which stresses your muscles a bit more than usual! If you use too much weight, failing at your exercise after just 8-12 repetitions, there's a good chance that you will start bulking up (bodybuilding).
I would suggest doing resistance training on each major muscle group 2-3 times per week. Gradually increase the number of repetitions, sets, or weight over the weeks and you will definately notice a difference! Have a look at 'The Perfect Body Plan' for an excellent resource for whole body toning: http://starturl.com/physique Good Luck!!!
Lift weights. The end.
