I'm recovering from sickness so I lost a lot of weight from it I'm 5'11 and only 126 lbs

Thanks for posting this thread
I hate to burst your bubble but eating lol. So you have high metabolism, so do I. The fix? Eat more, lower meal size and increase meal timing. Don't have a breakfast, lunch and dinner. Change it to meal 1-7. Awhile back i hit a plateu and was unable to gain weight past 200 (about 2 years ago) thats when i increased meal frequency. I ate 6-7 times a day, even when it was 3am i would go downstairs and microwave some rice and chicken.

There are three body types and i would assume you're more close to a ectomorph. High metabolism, tall, and hard weight gainer.



Unfortunately for you, your strategy on gaining weight is very little to no cardio. You have to increase your food intake even to a point were it feels like a chore.

Fortunately ectomorphs have stronger and thicker bones. They tend to be naturally stronger in the gym and they can allow more cheating in their diet.
