Answers:
you are doign way way too much cardio, youre burning off all the calories you need to build muscle, eat more carbs and protein, you might get a lil fat at first but you can cut all the fat off once you gained your desired weight. Start eating tuna, chicken breast, eggs, beef. dont rely on supplements to gain weight.
aim for 1 gram of protein per lb.
protein shakes post workout and before you sleep will help, no-xplode or NO-shotgun will give a boost when you workout.
try a 4 day split
monday- chest/tris...bench press, tricep extensions, etc
tuesday- back/bis...chin ups, rows, curls
wed- 45 min cardio/ abs
thurs-legs..squats, leg press, deadlifts
fri- shoulders..military press, raises
since your in the army its tough, its bad to go to failure as in burning out in every set, it wont help the muscle grow
this will let each part recover and grow. Go intense and heavy with 1 minute rest, about 6-8 reps a set for hypertrophy
150 to 180 is tough, start eating!Health Question & Answer

being someone that works out myself weighttraining i know how important it can be to maintain muscle so i would aim to eat 2g of protein per kg of bodyweight so for example if you weigh 60kg then aim to eat 120g of protein a day to build and maintain muscle.

At a guess I'd say you are over-training. Don't train to failure each time. As one pro bodybuilder once said "stimulate don't annihilate". also, you could probably cut back the amount of training days to 4 a week using an upper/lower body split like monday - upper body, tuesday lower body, wednesday - rest, thursday - upper, friday - lower. Keep your workouts to one hour max and make sure you include mostly compound exercises. If you are over-training no amount of supplements will help you to gain mass.

The way to keep your muscle and avoid losing your hard earned muscle isn't going to be achveived by supplements but through calories!
You need to keep your calories up and eat plenty of good healthy carbs like leafy green veggies and lean quality proteins like chicken, turkey, egg whites and salmon/seafood.
Finally, another reason i think your losing muscle is because of SO MUCH cardio. Cardio is good for burning fat but terrible for muscle gain/maintenance. Taper it down to maybe 3-4 times a week instead of the marathon type cardio you're doing. It's just burning precious calories your muscles need to grow.Health Question & Answer
