“I Want To Be Toned”

"I want to be toned. What exercises should I do?"⁠

Any of them. Like literally any exercise. Jumping Jacks, rolling around in the snow, squats, pushups, running. Anything. ⁠

There isn't a movement out there that is proven to get you more toned. ⁠
What even is toned? ⁠

The definition of toned is having firm and well-defined muscles. ⁠

But here's the follow-up: What is well-defined? What's the cutoff? What is toned enough?⁠
I find it ironic how vague and poorly defined the concept of toned is...⁠

It's the same thought process behind "I want to be strong", "I want to be in shape", "I want to be fit". ⁠

Do you want those things or do you want how those things would make you feel? ⁠

I also hope you want those things for yourself, and not because some magazine told you it was important. ⁠

Fitness, training, and active lifestyles don't need to be solely based on appearance. They can also be about improving how you feel.
