While all helpful posts on /fit/ are a welcome sight to my eyes, when a poster comes out with
>i don't really wanna sign up for the gym and just lifts weights and become macho or anything. i just wanna get toned, add some muscle
it's pretty damn frustrating. I mean, don't worry OP. You sure as hell won't get macho overnight if you lift a heavy weight. Especially if you don't want to go to a gym, have an inconsistent diet and smoke. Believe it or not, people have to strive for things like physical fitness. Who'd have thought? Jackass.
Despite this, I don't want to be hypocritical. So, my advice. You are right in saying what you eat is just as important as the exercise. And to cover the most important part: eat. Eat alot. People who exercise and also have a fast metabolism burn through alot of calories. In order to maintain, let alone gain, any muscular weight you will be have to be eating regularly, eating alot, and eating well.
Secondly, if you're not willing to go to a gym or purchase the required equipment for the three basic exercises mentioned to you, do calinsthetics. Or better yet, buy a sandbag. Find a compromise. Research and find something you're willing to do.
Thirdly, make smoking an occasional thing, like alcohol. And when you're ready to stop pussyfooting, quit it altogether. You'll be better off.
