Spooner

I weigh 130 lbs and I am 5'7" and trying to build some mass. Since I skateboard, I want to remain flexible but build lots of strength in relation to fast twitch muscle fiber. I would love any insights, ideas, pointers, etc that anyone has to offer as I am really new to the site. I haven't been tracking my calories, but I have been eating as much as I can; I have been eating a lot of builder's bars, peanut butter, boca burgers with veganaise, hemp oil, hemp protein shakes, bananas, sprouted crackers, tofurkey sausages, and a lot of bread. Any ideas on how I can maximize my weight gain? I am not doing much in the way of cardio besides skateboarding, and I haven't been lifting weights, but I want to start. Any additional information or ideas would be appreciated.

This is awesome, I don't know where to begin really. I am a hard gainer, but I also skateboard, so I am looking for ways to bulk up but not lose flexibility... Anything that helps fast twitch muscle fiber is a plus. I am 130 lbs and 5 foot 7...

Hi, my name is Steven, and I am new to the site. I have only been vegan for around 2 months or so, but I am doing really well with it. I have been supplementing with hemp protein smoothies, walking around a lot, and skateboarding. My girlfriend has helped me change my diet and get back up to 130 lbs, which has been difficult due to my newly found sobriety. The beer I drank all the time was a major part of my caloric intake, and I lost about 8-10 lbs, but I have gained it back. I also have ALD, which means that the external cortex of my adrenal glands is dead, so I have to take fludrocortisone and cortef daily to stay alive and deal with physical stress. Being new here, I guess I don't really know where to start... If you have any useful bits of information to throw my way I am all ears...er..eyes.
