I've been training with weights for a few months now but I am not seeing a lot of results (I know, it takes time). I understand that it depends on which muscles I want to target and also what I eat will influence the muscle growth.
I am wondering if I could add something to my routine. I use dumbbells to train (they came with the house when I bought it 5 years ago, I found them under the staircase).
I use the same weights for my exercises (maybe that's bad) but I feel my muscles moving and forcing so it should be okay (without pulling anything).
My dumbbell routine is:
I'm trying to target the arms, shoulders, and back. Every day I either run or walk a good deal. I sometimes do a few pushups if I feel like it. It's not regular in every session.
Maybe lateral raises or shrugs would help? Or something else?

My dumbbell routine is:
- Bicep curls
- Shoulder press
- Tricep extensions
- Chess press
- Rope pull down (with dumbbells instead of a rope or cable).
- Romanian deadlifts
