Ok I am 19 years old and am under weight
for my age. My question is how do I
calculate how much calories I need a day
to start gaining some weight so that I can
work it into muscle?
Thanks for your time.

Hun, if you want to put on weight, start
hitting the gym....Its the only way you
will be able to increase your muscle mass.
Along with weight training, add protein
and carbohydrates to your diet....You can
do this easily with protein powders that
are high in carbs...Usually called weight
gainer right on the labels...If you want
more info on this, I could send you tonnes
of info (i am in the
health/fitness/bodybuilding industry).
Don't focus on numbers for calories.
People tend to get wrapped up in that
stuff, and neglect what is important:
eating quality food (qulaity protein
sources, carbohydrates, veggies, etc)
supplemented by a weight training regime.
(if you need info on this, I can help ya
too..Just send me a pm). Just don't load
up on macdonalds and crap-tacular food
like that...That will not give you your
desired effects...Instead, you will be
skinny with a flabby tummy!
:d
