Currently 6', 230 lbs

Would like to be 195ish and cut

Just getting into a good routine of exercise and eating right (on my 3rd week). I'm focusing on losing body fat and gaining functional strength + muscle definition, but not necessarily muscle "size".

Reason for getting in shape, other than health and aesthetics, is I ran a tough mudder and enjoyed it immensely, but I was/am so out of shape that I barely finished and was utterly exhausted from the start. Needed help getting through some of the more physically demanding obstacles. I want to run one at a good pace and clear all the obstacles on my own.

I've been slowly adding to my workout routine. Currently it is as follows:

Morning Workout:
M,T,Th,Fr - run/jog 1 mile, set of pushups (25), set of dumbbell squats (35 lbs each hand x 12 squats).

Evening workout 1 (M,W,Fr):
run/jog 25 minutes (currently get to 1.7 miles), 2x sets pushups (20 each), 2x sets Turkish Getups (5x reps, 25 lb kettlebell), 2x sets kettlebell curl / kettlebell shoulder press (25 lb bell, 10 reps)

Evening Workout 2 (T,Th):
run/jog 25 minutes, 2x sets burpees (10x reps), 2x sets dumbell rows (40 lbs, 10reps), 2x sets deltoid raises (12 reps, 15 lbs)

I swap days of evening workout 1 and 2 each week.

Would like to add chinups, pull ups, dips, and hanging knee raises to these routines.

Diet is typical high protien, high fiber, low carb (especially after lunch).
