How can I gain 40 pounds FAST?
Hello, I’m 18 years old, 5’8" tall and weigh around 115-117. I am underweight for my height and have always been smaller than my friends.
My family is very unlucky when it comes to growing genes and I got the short end of the stick. All males in the family are extremely skinny although my dad is a solid weight for his height. I have also been taking a prescription drug called Adderal since I was in the sixth grade. This drug helps ADD but removes your appetite. Six years of barely eating anything and going days without food has really taken a toll on my body.
I am a food expediter at a 4 star restaurant and have to carry heavy trays that would cost my company hundreds of dollars if dropped. All my life I have been told that i’m screwed and my family genes/metabolism will not allow me to gain weight.
I have also tried taking BSN products such as TruMass weight gaining supplements. I didn’t seem to gain ANY weight after a solid month of 3 1k calorie shakes per day. Due to the fast pace of my job i would consider myself in good condition for how skinny i am.
I would really like to know if it is possible for me to go from 115 to 130/145. I’m tired of being small and am ready to make the change. I understand working out and eating/sleeping right is hard work but i’m ready for the challenge.
I have stopped taking prescription drugs and would really like to gain some weight before going to college for the military.
Please send me some tips for rapid weight gain or working out. I’m also clueless as to what to eat. I have a Bowflex V2 that never gets used and would love to learn some new stuff. Thanks in advance!

I would suggest lots and lots of protein coupled with weight training. If you have a really fast metabolism, and have a busy lifestyle, you are not going to gain weight only taking in 3000 calories a day, such as with those shakes. 3000 sounds like alot, but for a male with a high metabolism, that is probably the amount your body requires on a regular basis anyway. Just add more healthy calories to it. Don’t skip out on the rest of the food pyramid though.
