[quote=Anonymous]Some bodies never look "toned" no matter what you do. Tone is genetic and neurological. How your muscles look in resting state depends in the signal from your brain to the muscle. It is a range from hypertonia (rigid muscles with reduced mobility, and spasms, like in many forms of cerebral palsy), to hypotonia (loose floppy muscles, as in floppy baby syndrome). Healthy muscles are never fully relaxed, the brain holds them in a shape, but the range of healthy muscles is from borderline hypotonia (always soft looking with little to no definition) to borderline hypotonia (a 5 year old with a 6-pack but not great range of motion). Whether or not weight lifting will change how you look depends on how much fat you carry, but also on where you fall in the neurological range between hypotonia and hypertonia.[/quote]
