How much weight did you gain? Post up your training, diet so we can learn from you.
i gained 25 lbs, the first pic i was 200 and now i'm 225. I'm 6'4"
my diet has been pretty simple. basically i'm eating around 4000-4500 calories a day and eating clean. I try to get at least 1g protein per lb and eat lots of low gi carbs, and few tbl spoons olive oil for efa's. Lots of oats, wheat bread, chicken, tuna, beef, veggies. occasionally i eat out at subway, arby's or fuddruckers (the most awesome burger restaurant ever

).
I'm doing 5x5 for my training now, its been working really well as far as strenth gains, i've broken through alot of early plateaus.
a normal training schedule for me looks like...
monday chest/tris
flat bench 5x5
inc bench 2x10
pec dec or db flyes 3x10
dips 3x10
close grip bench 3x10
tuesday quads
squats 5x5
hack squats 2x10

thursday shoulders
5x5 incline side raises (doing them at an incline takes some stress off my shoulders)
