Some basic rules for gaining mass / muscle.
Definitely work out your legs!! Working out your legs releases a lot of testosterone into your body which is great for adding muscle mass.
Try training individual muscle groups rather than doing an upper body work out. For example, one day do chest / tri, another do back / bi, another do legs, another do shoulders. This will give your muscles the time they need to rest & repair.
High weight & low reps. That is a key thing when trying to bulk up. You want to push around as much weight as you can, but ALWAYS maintain good form. Never sacrifice form for weight. Do the max weight you can WITH good form. You dont need to do a lot of reps. Just push the high weight a few times.
EAT EAT EAT. Take in lots of protien.
This is what has worked for me. I used to be 6'5" 185, I am now 6'5" 230. And i'm a good deal leaner than I was at 185. I'm at the strongest I have ever been in my life by far. The key is just to stick with it, and give it time. It takes a long time to develop your body. Dont expect overnight results. Just be patient and stick to it. Enjoy doing and the rewards will follow.
Hope this helps. Feel free to PM me if you have any other questions.
Good luck!!
