In order to put on weight,calories must be saved and not spent. This means getting plenty of rest. Your muscles don't grow when they are being trained; training will tear them up. Your body requires good nutrition and plenty of rest if it is to get bigger. Your rest days are just as important as your training days. To gain weight you must cut back on any other activities that are going to burn lots of calories. Rest as much as you can and eat as many healthy calories as you can.

Conventional wisdom suggests that you should weight train 3-4 times a week. This is fine for the average person but if you find it hard to gain weight then this is too much. You should do a whole body routine which includes squats, bench press, shoulder press, and bent over row. Do 3 sets of 6-8 reps as heavy as you can go. Have rest period until you feel ready. Do not train unless all the aches and soreness has gone. Your next training session should include dead lift, incline bench press, pull ups, and dumbbell press. Stick with this and continue to add little bits of weight to the bar.

The bottom line is that all these steps must be followed. Miss out one and you will not grow. Always eat our food,don't miss workouts unless you are still aching,and get plenty of rest. Be persistent, be progressive, keep doing all of the steps consistently and it will happen for you. Miss any of these steps and you will quickly lose anything you may have gained. You will not find a better way on how to gain weight.
