Its hard to do both at the same time, try for one goal then go on to the next. Build up an appreciable amount of muscle on your arms (dont forget to work your entire body though) with heavy weights and lower reps, then go on a cut and watch your diet and your arms will be defined. Follow other threads/stickys to find out how to bulk and cut.

well...in essence everyone who does any weight lifting has "tone"
If what you want is arms that arent flabby, then you have to build muscle
and then cut enough fat as to shed the excess fat

Don't ever try to build muscle while losing fat. Instead, go through a muscle building phase, and then adjust your diet accordingly to enter a cutting/fat loss phase.
