I’ve lost around 2 stone(now 5,4 and 57kgs), am fighting fit..but need more tone all over. Tips please!?

Hey there
I’m just looking for a good free site or ideas about toning my whole body. I’ve lost a couple stone over the last year and gotten really fit, healthy and very very active. I’m not afraid of really hard work exercise wise!!
I do around 3hours cardio per day a sit’s also part of my job as well as an hour intensive stretching yoga and chi gung/tai chi style stuff, I do sits in varying styles and fit-ball press ups. Ive got a small gap (40mins) in my day before bed time where I can do serious toning/resistance work. I feel a bit untoned in the usual woman areas, tum, bum, upper arms, thighs. Ive searched the web loads and have found bits and pieces but OI want to vary it as much as possible.
Is it best to do upper body one day, lower the next? Or concentrace on certain areas each day? Or is it best to do whole body daily or every other day?
I certainly need to drink more water too, any tips on remembering??Its awful, but I DO forget!
Cheers

What pilates exercises should I do to stregthen my lower back so my tailbone, L5, and L4 stay in place?

My rolfer had to move my tailbone, L5, and L4 back into alignment this week. I think they went out of place due to heavy lifting from my stone masonry job. My hip was turn anterior and posterior on left and right sides respectively. Also, my glutes are tight, any stretches I can do to help that?
Thanks Muse!

I’m getting rolfing, and doing pilates to help and injury. If my job is too hard on my body should I quit?

I’m doing my 5th rolfing session tomorrow and just started pilates for a hip injury that caused pain and tightness in muscles and tendons throughout my lower body and lower back. Rolfing has helped initially. However I do stone masonry for work right now and the lifting is hurting me. Should I keep doing that and start getting massages 3 times a week. Or should I quit my stone masonry job until I’m healthy and do something else for now?

which would be the best exercise to lose weight fast and tone up in five months,yoga or aerobics (sorry about the spelling)i need to lose 2 and a half stone please help.
