Everyone is different and you don't want
to mess with your metabolism....I don't
know why you would want to be so much like
your brother. Is there a particular
reason why you think you need to be like
him? You are still in high school so you
are still growing. A lot of your food
goes to growing at this point and as you
get older it will slow down and you might
gain a little more weight.
If you eat healthy and exercise, I'm sure
you will come out looking a little less
like a stick. Eating more isn't
necessarily better. If you want to build
up your weight, just take your vitamins
and eat healthy foods and
exercise.....don't try to gain by eating
unhealthy fatty foods.
Even if you do end up being thinner, I
gotta tell you, personally, I like my guys
that way and I'm sure there's others out
there that will dig ya just as well

fantasticj, is your brother older than
you? Cuz for us guys, its hard to start
gaining serious muscle mass until you
really start to hit puberty and your body
starts really changing into an adult
built. I lifted weights and ate a lot for
several years and I couldn't gain much
weight. Then in 10th grade, a massive
growth spurt started and is continuing
until now (I'm in 11th now). Usually, you
reach your maximum height and only then do
you start growing an adult male built.

Hmmmm. I'm 5 foot 11 and 145lbs and age
16. But two years ago I was 5 foot 9 and
115 lbs. I gained 30lbs after growing
those last 2 inches, so maybe the same
will happen for you

Lol, there are good things with being
skinny like long-distance running for
example, I got a bit worse at that after
gaining muscle weight. But ya, I'd have
to agree that having a muscled frame is
better looking on us guys in general

I'm, 5'9, 17yo, and 76kg.. not sure how to
convert to lbs.
Fantastic, im not sure what kind of food
you have at home, but eat a heap of steak,
beef, DAIRY, nuts, chicken, tuna, pasta..
well whatever you can get your hands on,
thats not rubbish
Try getting 6 LARGE meals a day. Make sure
your lifting weights if you want to get
bigger the good way, rather than just
become a lard a**, not that it sounds like
a problem for you.
Also the most obvious choice is to buy
some weight gainer.. powdered calories
Nobody should have
to put up with their lil bro being bigger
than them. Except for my brother =D
Hope this helps!
