So, like 0311 said high reps, despite the rampant belief in this, just won't lead to further definition, not in a magical way and not by burning more fat

I wouldnt say this is 100% truth, you can use high rep schemes, and supersets to 'mimic' cardio activity. Much the same way that Dave uses complexs. If breaks are short, and heart rate is kept high, you can most surely achieve a cardio like effect. This is similar to the depletion workouts used in UD2, which give way to supercompensation ... ect ect. But in order to achieve this effect, you wont be using wieghts even remotely near what you need to pack on mass, or invoke hypertrophy.
Its all in how you use the tools you have. But by no means will doing sets of 10-15 with 2min breaks lead to a more defined, or more toned as you put it body.
