    Eat well and do GOMAD: Gallon Of (whole) Milk a Day, with P90X and you cant help but put on weight quick. You will put on a little fat as well but 6'6" and 169, a little extra won't hurt. GOMAD (2400 cal) plus 2500 of regular food daily and I added 15 lbs in 6 weeks with P90X.

    Eventually dropped 5 lbs to lean out but did GOMAD again with 5x5 strength training (squat, deads, bench and barbell press) a year later and put on another 20lbs in 6weeks.

    That is skinny for that height. Someone else that takes out the driver seat to fit in these cars
    You are fighting your youth, mostly your metabolism. You need to increase your calories and not do as much cardio. I would join a gym, and get a good protien/calorie supplement. Get in a weight lifting program...and go from there. That P90X stuff is a lot of cardio (which is good for the right people), but it doesn't replace hitting the weights at the gym.

    For muscle building, the secret is to work out your muscle to failure multiple times in a work out. Rest and eat right (protein intake spread out in a day) for recovery. When you hit a major muscle group hard like that, give yourself about week for recovery. But you need to start off slow. The hard part is showing up.

    i mean dont get me wrong p90x is FANTASTIC , i have done it three go throughs now and will do it more after my leg is healed up. but dont do it looking to gain a ton of mass, you can gain alot of muscle if you really heavy up your weights but keeping that pace for an hour is tough. for instance to be able to complete and hour of back and biceps almost all my curling in the begining was with 20lb weights per arm now im up to 30 per but doing 15-20 reps multiplied by an hour.

    start shoveling the protein i and mix it with milk, you need 100 grams minimum a day more if you wanna bulk, mixing with milk allows you to keep it sane because each "shake" will have 45-50 grams in it , and the way i sit right now i go through 1 gallon of milk every other day.

    I would follow the P90X nutritional guide. You can bulk up with P90X but I think it's more to get you into all around shape other than beefing up. If you really just want to gain mass then get a gym membership and lift up heavy things and put them down...repeat and eat a crap-ton of protein and it'll eventually work.

    christ, 6'6" and 169? this thread almost makes me feel fat. almost.

    i have a few friends who did a couple months of insanity - one in particular slimmed down a LOT - he stopped doing it before he made it to the bulking up phase, but the weight has stayed off. these programs definitely work as long as you do what they're asking. if you're not tired afterwards you're either not doing it right or you're a professional athlete.

    hope you put on the pounds you're looking for!

    i don't get it. enjoy being skinny. seriously. age and fast-food can destroy that in a hurry...but GETTING there is incredibly difficult. enjoy what you have. "bulking up" is really pre-gaming for larger fat deposits when you age.

    god i wish i was back at 169.
