Answers:
Building muscle under fat is a mixed bag....it's still extra muscle mass, and it will boost your metabolism, which could over time help you to get rid of the extra fat. However, in the short term it'll just make you look bigger.
Good ways to lose fat to improve definition -- high-intensity cardio exercise combined with careful dieting. Also, switching your weight training from bulk-building to muscle-toning would really help. For the purposes of muscle toning, it's best to cut back a bit on the weight you lift, and perform extra reps and sets with that lighter weight.
