I've had the app for a while just never used it. I am currently 35 at 221.6 pounds @ 6'2" and would really like help learning how to maximize muscle growth without losing too much weight . I am going to say my body fat percentage is roughly 25-30% . I started out at close to 240 pounds

Hi, and welcome to the Community . . . and congratulations on your success so far with weight loss!
You might find some other muscle-growth-oriented posts and people over in the Gaining Weight and Body Building part of the Community. (It's friendly to those who're strength training but not trying to gain weight.) Direct link here:
https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/categories/goal-gaining-weight
That area isn't as active as some others, but there are good threads there and some activity if people post questions.
You might also get some ideas from this quite good thread, which is in the Most Helpful Posts of the Maintaining Weight area:
