With such a topic so broad we truly try to cover the basics from all angles in this group. Nothing too big or too small. Nutrition is as significant if not more as exercise is to reaching your goals so learn all you can.

Hey,
I'm a 17 year old guy with not much body fat on me at all. I'm all bony and I want to gain weight the healthy way. I still don't have "cut" abs, which is disappointing. However, I don't have much development in the chest and arm area. I want to put on weight, but how? I have a membership at the YMCA now, so I have access to weights, but I'm still a little lost.

Diet:
When should I eat most of my fat/carbs/protein?
How much fat/carbs protein should I eat?
Should I eat at night? If so, what? Is anything clean OK?
Should I just eat what I want when I want as long as it's healthy?

Exercise:
How much exercise should I be doing?
Any weight training tips for me?
I'm in college so I sometimes don't have much time. Any tips?

Thank you so much!

Help me out please! I'm tired of being so scronny. My collar bones and hip bones stick out.

Thanks!
