I was talking to another fitness instructor friend of mine about teaching body sculpting classes. We were discussing how to get across that using very light weights is not going to tone you. I think a lot of people are misinformed. Doing that doesn't work.
Use Light Weights and High Reps To Tone?
What year is it? 1993? If you are doing very high repetitions of very light weights to get a toned physique, you are living in the past. It’s time to move on. These high repetitions will increase your muscular endurance but will not add strength or tone. We now know that in order to truly challenge your muscles, heavier weights with lower repetitions are a must. Start with an 8-10 repetition range and push your muscles with each set.
