Are you trying to gain fat?? If so then add in high sugar laden foods such as ice cream and cheesecake, preferably eaten late at night.

however, if getting some more muscle is your goal then, make sure you are eating enough - this is where most people fall down - and use slow-releasing carbs, excellent post-workout nutrition, BCAA's during the workout (40-60g), creatine or beta-alanine cycled on/off and get your testosterone levels sorted along with your digestion and gut health. Ensuring you have adequate zinc and sufficient stomach acid for example are important factors. Good luck!

yay! Got any more tips?
1 - Already eating large portions of fairly dense food - 3x a day + snacks.
2 - For most of my life I skipped breakfast. Just breaking that habit.
3 - I've definitely got the beers covered

Steps 4 and 5 however, I do appear to be avoiding. Not sure they're such great options.

So, why am I finding it so hard to put on weight?
Super-fast metabolism? Worms?

Not kidding, the only way I can put on weight is to eat like a bastard, high carb protein shakes, and resistance training.. and still really struggle to get results.

(So, how many of you *hate* me now?)
