Okay, I'm 17 years old, 5'10 and a small 125 lbs. I run year long and I have a decently fast metabolism so I think that's why I never gain any weight. Recently, I've decided that I want to gain some weight but I don't want to gain it by having an unhealthy diet that consists of fast food and soda. I'm just wondering how this diet sounds for someone that is trying to gain some healthy weight, I'm not an extreme hard gainer or lifter I just want to weigh more and yet still be lean. I do cardio 30min-60mins a day (5 days a week) and I lift 30mins a day (6 days a week). I really just want to know what this diet plan and exercise regime will do to my body, body fat % wise, weight wise, etc. Here's the diet and thanks to anyone in advance that offers some input.
