Hello,

I'm trying to get muscle definition and started on a strict diet. I have no idea how much I should be eating. I started a low-fat diet, it's definitely working, but I don't think I'm eating enough. I do try to eat every 3 hours with focus on 25g of protein per meal and good carbs. I do rotate out the sweet potatoes with brown rice.

I'm 6'1' current weight is 221lbs. My body fat is around 28%. I do a lot of meal prepping which makes it easy to stay on track with my diet. I work out with free weights 5-6x a week. I do each body part twice a week. I also do 10-15 minutes of cardio 2-3 times per week. I appreciate any feedback anyone can give me.

Here's my typical day
