He doesn't want to win the Olympia, just increase tone a little. Best to stick with lighter weights and higher reps.

I know you guys think riding the bike is all you need, but cross training helps.

I think there is a synergy in training muscles from different angles. I could be wrong, it's just my opinion.

squats are always the best. leg press/hack squat machine is second place. Lunges if you just want to use dumbells.
