Thank you!

Ench!

com/dictionary/definite and clear <the definition of a telescope> <her comic genius is beyond definition > b (1) : clarity of visual presentation : distinctness of outline or detail <improve the definition of an image> (2) : clarity especially of musical sound in reproduction c : sharp demarcation of outlines or limits <a jacket with distinct waist definition > Having muscular definition is having a relatively large amount of muscle in proportion to a relatively small amount of fat so that the shapes of the muscles are distinctly outlined and noticeable. The contours of the body are thus not rounded, soft, and smooth, but somewhat angular and hard -- muscular, in short! CJ

It means that your muscle outlines are easy to see:

Extremely low body fat coupled with superior muscle separation and vascularity; the physical manifestation of 'dialing it in'. Adjectives that are used to describe this desired state include ripped, shredded, sliced, cut, striated.

Of course, in your case, this is not true, since you lack definition. Bodybuilders hav

Hard to tell for sure; I'm afraid it might mean testicles.
