Sport Trying to get ripped, can't quite get there

[PeteZaHut]

I'm 20 years old and 160 pounds. I do cardio 3 days a week. It consists of interval training on stationary bike for 30 min, and I burn about 250 cals. I do weight lifting 3 days a week. I do everything when I lift (arms, legs, chest, back, abs, shoulders). I've calculated my daily caloric needs to be in the 2400-2600 range. After I started this diet, I've noticed improvement, but I still can't get that ripped look.

Burn more calories or consume less calories. Period.

If you want your muscles to show more and have that 'ripped' look, you need to reduce your body fat %... So basically what SXIPro said, just make sure you don't cut out too much protein!
