So, I've got a problem that a lot people would kill for. I find it very difficult to gain weight. I'm normally about 85kg, I've managed to get to 88kg. My goal is 100kg.
I'm trying to get a bulkier but leaner look.
I know I need to eat more. But what kind of meals can I eat to gain weight but not intake loads of fat?
I'm a complete beginner so any advice would be nice |

Ah. I used to be like you. I did solve the problem. But alas you can't do it. I had a baby.
I tried for years to put on weight. You look fine to me. Just right. I was always being asked if i was anorexic.

I'm the same. Doesn't matter how much or how little exercise I do, I just seem to hover around the same weight |

"A diet to gain weight is as complicated as a diet to lose weight. I'd seek a nutritionists advice."
Huge quantities of protein. You’ll build muscle and put on weight without looking like a fat bastard like me. 100kg is pretty heavy for a guy of your height. |

I'm aiming for 100kg. But if I get to say 95kg and like the results then I'll stop there |

A clean bulk is hard to do that’s why they have protein shakes.
You’d probably benefit from casein whey protein cos it’s normally slightly higher in calories yet still low sugar and standard 24grams of protein. |

Protein shakes always make me feel bloated and abit sick. Trying to stick to food rather than supplements |

Lean protein sources, wholegrain carbs, good fats, plenty of fruit and veg.
250 calories a day surplus is all you need, as you get heavier you'll need to increase calories.
Lift heavy and often, be consistent, track calories.
12kg of lean tissue is a shed load of muscle.
Youre looking at a few years to gain that without turning into mr Bobby.
100kg at 5'11" is big, I'm 6'2" at 110kg and I'm a big un |

Why do "want" to be 100kg ?
Becarfull of protein intake if body is overloaded it wont process it and will turn to fat or you will just urinate it out so a waste of time and money takes a long time to bulk properly very strict food and training correctly. |

100kg is the maximum, I should have said that rather than goal |

Eggs, chicken, steak, 4 meals a day, fresh raw veg and salads, simple carbs to keep you going. Lots of water. Stay off too much wheat, it'll slow you down.
Heavy weights, floor work, even yoga for developing your core strength, then build on that.
I reckon even 5kg on you will be a significant (and more achievable) difference, if that's what'll make you happy  |

Really ?
I did when I was younger, just cut cardio to the min, and train really heavy 2-3 times a week max with plenty of rest and sleep.
Look up progressive resistance training, if you do this the eating required will happen naturally
It’s not healthy though, if you eat healthily be keep active you ate the weight and shape you are meant to be |

"Foodstuff high in protein. Peanut butter, natural yoghurt, cottage cheese, unsalted nuts. Full fat milk is good also. All cheap, tasty and hopefully will do the trick."
That’s true but unless you are progressively ripping and repairing with deep sleep you can’t physically eat enough to gain muscle |
