[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If general tone and weight loss are the goals, then probably focus on the big lifts that engage the most muscles at once: deadlift, squat, chest press. You’ll get biceps/triceps work done with those and the big lifts will be the more efficient use of your time. I do each of those big three 3x a week and that seems to work well.[/quote] NP - the only downside of the big three is that it lacks an upper body pull exercise, i.e., something that engages the back/biceps. Adding in some kind of row would take care of that. Ultimately, OP, visible “tone” (muscle definition) is just as much about low body fat as it is about the muscles themselves. Achieving that requires different things for different people and it’s not clear what you need to do to get there. [/quote]
