As I understand it, definition comes from a combination of leaness, muscle tone and muscle size. Muscle tone refers to residual tension in the muscle even when you are relaxed and comes from heavy weights with low reps.
I think a few basic, multi joint exercises like overhead presses, dips, rows and pullups using a fairly heavy weight would be a good start. Add some bi and tri work at the end if you feel you need to but do the big lifts first, they give you more bang for the buck. For more muscle tone try using a lower volume but greater frequency or for muscle mass do more volume and with more time between workouts so you can recover.
