New cholesterol numbers

I have not done a lipids panel in a long time. Last two tests:

156 >133 Tri's
Total both about 200 and I can't remember the HDl but last time it might have been 42.

This one:

Tri's 91
TC 242
HDL 50
LDL 174

What am I targeting for here for further improvement? What is optimal tri's? How bad is my HDL? I was hoping it would be at least 60. I looked and could not find the ratio information.
