I was wondering if you guys could critique my workout routine and offer some advice. I've been doing this since mid-January and so far I do have more muscle definition and a bit more mass but I haven't noticed any significant weight gains. However I do LOOK more muscular than before.

I go 3x a week, and do 3 muscle groups each time. I do three exercises for each muscle group in a row, 3 sets, 6-10 reps (aim for 8). Chug water (about 3-4 bottles each time), try not to stay for more than an hour. After I've changed back into my normal clothes I have two hard boiled eggs for protein. I leave at least 1 day rest between workouts, of course. On non-workout days I try to eat lots of protein-rich foods, I go through about 24 eggs a week, I eat lots of chicken, etc.

Right now I'm 6'3'' 185 lbs. I'd like to increase the size of my muscles (esp. arms and pecs) but I don't want to add any more fat if I can avoid it.
 

If you currently have too many women chasing you, calling you, harassing you, knocking on your door at 2 o'clock in the morning... then I have the simple solution for you.

Just read my free ebook 22 Rules for Massive Success With Women and do the opposite of what I recommend.

This will quickly drive all women away from you.

And you will be able to relax and to live your life in peace and quiet.

What exercises do you do? I can't critique the routine without knowing the exercises, sets, and reps for each bodypart.

I try to do as many free weight exercises as I can. For legs I do squats and presses. For arms I do curls with free weights, bars and sometimes a machine for variety. For shoulders, again, free weight raises. For my back I do bentover rows and cable pulleys. For the chest I do bench press and free weights. For triceps, same thing.

You still haven't been very specific listing your exercises for every bodypart, just list give us a list of every exercise you do, you said you do 3 sets of 6-10 reps, i'd take it down to 4-6 or so and try to lift heavier weight if you want to put on muscle.

Try to be more specific, instead of saying:
For the chest I do bench press and free weights
bench press is good, but free weights? that could mean anything, this is my current chest workout:

Chest

Flat Bench Barbell press - 5 sets of 5 reps
Incline (30 degrees) dumbell press - 2 sets of 6-8
Incline (30 degrees) barbell press - 2 sets of 6-8

Oh, and you need to eat a lot more than 2 eggs after your workout, that is only 12 grams of protein, you need about 40. You should be consuming about 1/3 of you daily calories within a couple of hours after your workout (apparently, i read that somewhere, makes sense though).
