Ok guys, in July I bought ap air of the select tech interchangeable dumbbell weights. I have been working out 5 days a week. Monday, Wednesday, and Friday is chest, tri's, and bi's. Tuesday-THursday is shoulders, back, and legs.
After about 3 1/2 months I have lost the desired amount of weight, but haven't been able to gain more muscle. I notice myself getting more tired as the week progresses.
Do you guys think I should cut back to Monday and Thursday chest, bi's, and tri's with Tuesday and Friday being shoulders back and legs with Wednesday off? Or do I push harder?
Keep in mind I'm not trying to get body building big, just stay in shape and maybe get a little more cut. Thansk!

I usually consume between 150-200 grams of protein a day.
Pretty sure it was the cold. I got slammed with it today, feel like death You can eat up to 3g per kilogram bodyweight of protein per day, that's the max. So for example you weight 100kg, you can eat 300g of it.

you didn't mention a cardio day
I'd suggest you cut out the wednesday workout and get some low intensity cardio work in on that day
basically agree with what olivant said.
would also vary the exercises you do per bodypart That's what I was thinking, hitting Bi's, Chest and Tri's 3 times a week is starting to burn me out

Also try using some sort of muscle rub or vasoline before you train/stretch/ and do cardio. There is something you can get online called Sweet Sweat, it's kind of like ICY Hot but it helps you get a better sweat and look leaner and more defined. I'll have to check that out, Thanks!

Good discussion and i really like it. Well i do workout everyday and i take proper rest during the day to maintain my health with fitness. I consume little amount of protein in a day because i don't need to build up muscles and mass. Click here for more information
