Answer 1

Sure...there are a lot of things you can do ..check out the web. If you are working with weights there are ways to build bulk and there are ways to build lean muscle mass, check out which one you want to pursue at a local gym..they will give you free advice. And as for your food intake, track your calories. You need to be eating 1000 + more calories than you use. If you are very active (and you are) then you will burn up everything SO it is important to take in more than you use. Track it. And the time you eat also will give you weight. you still need to eat three meals a day but plan a big snack before going to bed ....and make sure it includes carbs. And ice cream shakes help put weight on too. Having three of so of these a day should be part of your plan. And you may want to see your doctor because he may have some ideas. Be careful not to over do it though ....young people have heart attacks too.
