Many news publications have been revealing the best workouts for busy men looking to tone up without a ton of time to spare.

Men looking to tone their bodies can focus on five specific exercises targeting different muscle groups.

In all cases, beginners should stick to two to three sets of 12 to 15 reps, while two to five sets of 6 to 10 reps is recommended for muscle building and three to eight sets of 1 to 5 reps is recommended for strength training.
