like everyone said diet is very important, more important than working out. Try to get in at least one gram of protein per pound that you weigh..for example, take in 200 grams of protein a day if you weigh 200 pounds, if you do this, you'll be massive in no time
not to bash you here but taking in 1 gram of protein per lb will not make you gain much mass, if your looking for pure mass then I suggest taking in 1.5 g of whey per lb, and upping your intake to 2-2.5 g per lb. if your looking to gain and stay lean at the same time then stick with 1-1.5 g per lb.
also I suggest if you want to gain it back fairly quick, take some creatine, I use cell-tech theres better creatines out there/ but if your looking to stay cheap then use a mix of 50g whey protein and 50g dextrose which has been shown to elicit the same insulin spike as a serving of Cell-Tech, and it is much cheaper I might add. I just use the cell-tech because its alot more convient for me.
