Im 15, 5 ' 4 and not sure about my weight now, gaining or losing, Im not friends with the bathroom scale
Answers:
To tone you must have muscle. So hit the weights. And don't be a wuss and grab the little pink 2.5 lbs dumbbells. If you want to look lean and sexy, you gotta use some heavier weights. Doesn't matter that you are a girl. You won't get "huge, muscular arms." And if you do start heading that direction, you'll have plenty of time to catch it. Even males that are genetically designed for building muscle can usually only gain .5 to 1 lb a week if they are doing everything right. So trust me, you will be safe...and probably impress some guys along the way. Do squats, deadlifts, triceps extensions, bench presses, pullups, rows and maybe some bicep curls (try to do the pullups though). Good luck.
