Tripper, you're not doing too bad for only 15 years old - I'd stay with the 85% if you are truly trying to gain strength. 3 sets will be fine.

As far as the definition - It won't happen while you're working on strength.

You will have to decide on one or the other for now.
At 204 lbs. and 6'3" I would advise getting a solid routine together to grow some size and then take a look at doing some "cutting" to get the definition.

I say this because increases in strength are motivational for starting out and this motivation will carry you better for cutting later.
