heres the thing, i got a pretty good amount of muscle on me. i know how to tone my arms, chest and all that stuff but not to sure bout my legs. there not really fat or anything but i do have some fat there and i was wanting to know the best way to tone them. for my legs i do several workouts but my main one is squats. only problem is that i don't want them to get my legs bigger, just tone. i also bycycle for 30 mins (stationary bike) will that tone good or no? thanks for any info

Biking and running will both tone your legs. If you have fat on your legs you can't make it go away by working your legs. The fat doesn't "belong" to your legs, it belongs to your whole body. The only way to get rid of fat is to consistently do cardio exercises, at least 30 mins each day for 4 or 5 days a week.

pretty much what steve said. technically speaking, there is no such thing as "tone". you either have low body fat or you don't. If you don't, you doin't see striations of developed muscle, unless they are flexed. "tone" is merely developed muscle with low bodyfat.

Try HIIT. Do a search on the internet for it, you will find plenty of information. It is better than aerobic excersize for both conditioning, and fat loss.

 

Agreed with others though. No such thing as toning. If your goal is to be 'toned,' the best way will be using bodybuilding methods (bulk/cut cycles). Try https://www.wannabebigforums.com for good information on every type of lifting.
