you can't ask such a general question......research first......everyone's diet is unique but follows the same rules....learn how much calories and what kind you need first

What's your stats? Age/Weight/Height, any know how on your current BF%? What is your routine, do you do cardio?

And don't except it to be a one, two, three of even four month start to finish, you want to get big, it'll take time.

I'm 17, 150, 5'11" and I really don't know my body weight. I'm a runner so I'm sure it's kinda low. My routine right now is Monday chest and arms, Tuesday back and legs, Wednesday off, Thursday arms and chest, Friday off, Saturday back and legs, Sunday off. I run 40's everyday so I guess that counts as cardio. Is this a good routine or should I be doing something different? Oh yeah I usually do abs when I do my legs and back. I know it's gonna take time, I just a need a good diet to get me going.

If you weigh so little and your doing that much cardio youll never gain muscle. I suggest you do some research.

I've been thinking about cutting out the cardio for a while what do you guys think?

I know a guy at work that is frustrated with the fact he gains very little weight when he eats big, and he cuts out his cardio too. He loves to run but it is a sacrifice he is making to get bigger on his lifts and eating more. I would cut out the cardio if you could, or cut it way down if you can't stand without it but eat to make up for the loss.

What are you looking to gain, you just want to get bigger on all your lifts, or anything you are specifically training for?

If you want to gain weight, you have to eat a lot of food man. Buy whey protein, eat lots of carbs, eat at mcdonalds everyday, or anything! you want. Just eat eat eat eat eat eat eat.
Workout plan should be more like this.
Chest/tri
off
Back/bi
off/
legs/shoulders
off
repeat. Hope this helps. good luck.

you can work them twice a week on your workoutdays, use weighted abs, crunches leg ups, etc.
