I'm 5'7 and weigh 127lbs. I have almost no body fat, so I'm not too worried about losing weight. I mostly want to gain muscle mass, stength, and endurance.

I've been lifting for about 6 weeks now, and I'm seeing somewhat results, but I'm wondering if could be doing more.

I'm mostly working on upper body, abs, and back, since I dance 3-4 times a week, which really works out my legs (and I worry if I try to lift weights with my legs, it could hurt my dance technique).

I (try to) lift every other day, and I do the same thing when I go. I start out doing some cadio to warm up - either the bike, or I go play some raquetball. Then I do the bench press (right now I at 85lbs, started at 65lbs), then I do inclined press with 20lb free-weights. I continue with curls with the 20lb weights, then I do a tricep machine at some low weight (it doesn't say what it is, but I know that my triceps are pretty weak). Then I do ... don't know what it's called, but you hold the bar and lift up, which gets your sholders and upper arms... I usually do this with the 30 or 35lb bar, depending on how tired my arms are by then.

For back, I do the machine where you lower the bar, and another where you bring two handles towards you. I finish off with crunches, leg lifts, and some stretching.

This takes me about an hour to do everything.

I don't know the technical terms for a lot of things... if you want me to describe them better I will try my best.
