Think about this logically anon.
You want to gain mass, so where would that mass come from?

I don't know. I see guys who are lean as fuck but swear by calorie deficits. Others push for eating more to fuel muscle.

If you can't figure out the most basic rule of lifting without others spoon feeding you, you don't deserve an answer

Just fucking shoot yourself man.
I dunno when you peaked but you must have been going downhill for years to get this low.
Just give up the struggle now.

Just eat more meats, vegetables, beans, nutz..a lot more. Don't use this "bulking" as an excuse to eat like a fucking pig like some people on here.

As a former Skelly "ectomorph lanklet" or whatever fancy name they call us twig people, I believe I can help you.

in 2015, I started my lifting journey. I was fed up getting no attention from females and no respect from males (of course, I weighed 56kg at a height of 1.8 m)

What I did was starting strength 5x5 for 6 months or so, then switched to PPL. For diet, I ate plenty of eggs, chicken, milk, nuts, oats and rice. I don't count calories but as I was Super skinny I used to force feed. I don't force feed anymore because I have a big appetite from lifting and being active. I am 72 kg now. the first few months are the hardest because you have to force feed, to get your body accustomed to eating huge. Hope this helps

I want to weight myself but don't have a machine is there and app I can stand with

What I used to do was, eat a huge plate of rice (I'm Asian), a portion of protein (5 egg whites/a chicken breast/a cut of red meat), and some vegetables. To wash it down i'd drink a milkshake of peanut butter and oat flour blended into milk. Training hard and eating big is the only way OP. And yes, if you're wondering, people do treat you better when you're physically in great condition. (I get bitches and respect from other guys)

AthleanX says start focusing on healthy food. Then once you adapt then worry about calories.

I think this is where the deficit meme comes from.

It worked for me. 30 lbs over 5 months. Just eat all the time but not shitty food.

I swear my body was rejecting the shitty food. I would eat so much junk and gain nothing.

This is gonna sound ridiculous, but as a former skelly, the best advice I got was from Richie Piano

>U gotta eat big to get big now c'mon
