If you wanna cut to the chase, start doing weight training. That's the fastest way to build muscle. Don't worry about gaining a ton of muscle really fast and looking like a man. That won't happen. Women do not produce testosterone like men, so their muscle gain is a lot slower.

Crunches and push ups helped me alot and weights.
When u do weights u have to do another exersise like lateral raises and squats or whatever of your choice. It burns more calories and works your muscules better. It'll improve both and gain bigger and better muscules. It helped me alot and ive only been doin it fo a month.
I hope i could help.
Lots of loves(:

Barbell training has helped me gain some muscle but if you don't want to use weights push ups and pull ups work the whole upper body. Body weight squats will take care of the lower body. How much muscle are you looking to get?

On day one, make sure to work the shoulders, chest, and triceps. On day two, focus on cardio for at least 20 minutes or longer. This should be a high-intensity workout. Day three consists of working biceps and back, while day four is doing different abdominal exercises. Day five is all about legs. Incorporate weight training exercises such as the military press, bench press, dead lifts, double bar dips, curls, barbell biceps, lunges, and squats.

Women shouldn't over-train or participate in marathon weightlifting sessions. You shouldn't try too many things at one time. It's better to allow 24 and 48 hours between workouts so muscles can rest. Muscles continue to burn fat even while at rest, which is why weightlifting is so important.

Make sure to warm up before starting any bodybuilding routine, too.
