    I'm not sure there is a singular best exercise. Some pull exercise to work the biceps, some push exercise to work the tricep, then enough weight/fat loss to expose the underlying muscle.

    "Toning" simply means to lose the fat so that your muscles show up better.

    Thus, since you can't spot reduce fat, there isn't a really good answer to your specific question.

    That said, pretty much any upper-body exercise - especially rows and pull/chin-ups - will work the biceps - and dips and bench press or push-ups will work your triceps, so they'll look good once you lose the fat. Also, you'll do well to incorporate some lower body work (squats, lunges, various forms of deadlifts) to work your leg muscles, so they'll look good, too.

    Less flabby is a fat issue... focus more on your diet, or if you're seeing results then just be more patient.

    Sure - you can set them up to emulate many different exercises - including most of the ones I mentioned.
