Like they have said go more for the heavier weights and fewer reps.

More importantly is the diet, eating correctly used to mean following the four food groups but studies now show that you should follow the food pyramid and eat a balanced diet. If you maintain a balanced diet based on the food pyramid you should not need any supplements and will still be able to bulk up.

The best thing to do is to spend the money for a good nutritionist or utilize the nutritionist at the gym you use to help you set up a healthy diet that will allow you to gain weight and also a maintenance diet after you reach that weight.

By eating a balanced diet you will be providing all of the things your body needs. Also remember that fat has a place in our diet you should try to get no less than 20% of your daily caloric intake from fat and an easy thing to use for fat calory is that each gram of fat contains nine calories.

Finally you must remember that genetics will play a big part in you bodies ability to gain the weight and to maintain a heavier weight specially while excersing, diet will have to be followed closely
