    What is a "toned" look by your definition? There really isn't standard definition for it because it's a made up word in the fitness industry. So are you talking less fat on your arms? There are no exercises that spot reduce fat off your arms. Are you talking about increasing the firmness under the fat in your arms? Doing arm exercises can achieve that as long as the resistance is challenging enough. Are you talking about adding a little muscle to your arms? That would take more to explain.
    All in all, if you want less fat on your arms, you go into a calorie deficit that's moderate and be consistent with it. Do resistance exercises to retain what muscle you already have.

    I started doing lat pulldowns, triceps dips, seated rows for rehab & it has really increased my upper body strength & once I lose the fat I'll be able to see the muscle I've built. I also do commando planks, assisted pull ups, deadlifts. Though I'm not targeting my arms & shoulders I've definitely added definition there.
