Jacky has the best answer so far, but its unlikely that you are going to see anything serious in two weeks.  The best you can hope for is to get the abdominal muscles that you already have to tense more.  This requires crunches but sit ups will work if you don't have access to a machine.\n\nYou could try taking creatine ester.  It causes your existing muscles to swell a little bit.  It might make you look a little better in the two weeks.  You get it at the health food store.\n\nThe bottom line is that if you want to tone and increase your build, you need to join a gym because its really difficult to do it without machines.  Not only that, but you can make friends with people there who *obviously* know what they are doing.  As long as they are not a$$holes, they usually don't mind giving other guys advice.\n\nAnother thing.  Do NOT do aerobic exercise like walking or jogging.  That's for fat people.  You said you are skinny.  You need crunches for your abs and bench presses for your pecks and triceps. Curls are also good for your biceps.  \n\nAlso, you need a high protein diet.  Get it from meat and whey supplements.  Carbs are not your friend, but you still need them in moderation.  I have found the unground beef steak is the best for me.  It seems to have the best bang for the buck as compared to chicken or pork.

You could do 5000 situps in a day and not get the results you want.\n\nResearch has come out that if you want to tone up, do cardio. Try pilates. Run.

Eat steak and potatoes, jog for 10min. everyday and lift heavy weight doing 4 repetitions x 3 sets, when it gets easier add 5 more pounds, drink plenty of water, don't forget the fruits.

You are pretty tall--look up the correct weight for your height and body type...work towards that slowly.\n\nDo cardio like running etc and cut back. It won't come easy or fast but it is doable.

No equipment needed....jog.......fast walking....running.  All can be done in the park.  Also, check out your local gyms, some are free but the hours are shorter than regular gyms with monthly fees.  Don't worry about how much fat.  Once you start, you will see the difference in a weeks time if you jog/fast walk/run.  Don't worry about resistance exercises if you want to lose inches fast, instead, do the above.  I did and lost over 100 pounds.  I started out only being able to walk 7 mins.  I can now jog for 1 hour and love it!  Good Luck!

Body weight squats and lunges don't require any equipment and will do an excellent job of toning with 20-30 reps per set.  You'll need a suitable cardio program and good diet to help you achieve the toned look as well.  Tae Bo is also great if you have access to the program.\n\nHere's a complete list, but many can be performed without any fancy machinery.\nhttp://www.preventdisease.com/fitness/Strength_Exercises_legs.html

Eat lots of sweets and chips & dips. That should do it pretty quickly.

Try an hour of cardio a day (maybe skip one day a week). Pilates is excellent because it stretches and tones so you get that long lean look. I love pilates. Do crunches. I like 8 minute abs! (so cheesy but it works). Don't eat sugar for awhile too that will help alot.

Its pretty much a myth about building fast muscles. You have to be religious about working out, starting tomorrow :) Push ups, pull ups, lunges and squats are the best for when you dont hae access to a weight room. My advice is eat healthy, 4 sets of 10 for each to start off every morning, (except for pull ups, only what you can handle) and work your number of reps up everyweek by 2. If your serious about packing on the muscle go to you local gym and find a trainer, his or her job is to figure out what you goals are and get your ass in shape.

How long have you been trying to get "buff"?\nI hope you realize that it's not something that's going to happen quickly. It's going to take diet, exercise, patience, persistence and time, time, time.

Replace all the pop and snack s you eat with water. Eat smaller portions and foods that contain 2 grams of fiber or more. DO not Stare yourself!!!\n\n Do a bunch of Abs, lunges, squats and push ups. These are easy ways to looked toned fast. Cutting pop can help you drop 10 lbs over time it worked for me and Richard Simmons..

Sounds like you need to lift in addition to your cardio, if you're not already.  Lower weights with more reps will help you tone without bulking up.\n\nIt wouldn't hurt to increase your workouts to 3-4 times a week, as well.  No more than 30-40 minutes necessary per day.  \n\nBest of luck!

Quickly: don't eat anything but laxatives.\n\nQuickly and safely: jog for an hour every day, eat healthy foods, eat less carbs then the amount of carbs that you burn exercising, eat 4-5 smaller, lighter meals, instead of 2-3 heavier meals because your metabolism works better with smaller things to digest. If you want to look healthier and toned, do lunges and squats or jog up and down stairs to tone your thighs, do situps for a good ab and back workout, pushups and weight lifting for upper arm strength, jogging or biking for calf muscles, etc.
