i'm a big proponent of low carb/keto for fat loss, but if you are at 158 right now that is pretty low so i imagine you are somewhat where you want to be fore being lean?
If thats the case then you need to start using carbs as a fuel for muscle growth. Carb backloading is an extreme way to go and only works if you are pushing out maxes with your workouts but a simple carb night once a week can give you more than enough fuel for building more lean mass and adding tone with some good resistance training. Just remember, tone doesn't come from more cardio, its from building muscle.
Carb night being an evening where you eat a somewhat large amount of pasta, breads, desserts or whatever you prefer, then back to low carb the rest of the week.
