I know it's needless for you to be told this, but definitely eat/drink lots of protein! Also squats while holding dumbells helped me gain good muscles as well.

Good Luck!

Oh! Squats! Those will become your best friend! Even if you did a small amount, like 25 a night for a week, by the end of the week you'll start seeing results.

Good luck on gaining weight, it can be hard, I have a friend whos trying to gain 20 pounds and its a lot of work.

Just a suggestion you may want to no do that strength training daily just so you don't overtrain your muscles and give them a chance to recover and rebuild. At a minimum doing that routine every second day even if that means upping the amount of reps your doing. And don't worry that won't make you bulky at all seeing your using low weight. Um also maybe consider adding in a few exercises for your back, calves, and triceps.

I'd suggest:
Dumbbell bent-over row (back): http://www.exrx.net/WeightExercises/...ntOverRow.html
Superman (back): http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/exer...?Name=Superman
Calf Raises:http://www.frixo.com/sites/fitness/e...alveraise.html
Tricep Dips:http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/exer...ame=Bench+Dips

Other then then it looks good.

Good luck!

111 lbs as of last thursday. let me holla.

45 lb benchpresses. not very impressive, but that's HUGE for me.

Just cheering you on from the sidelines, I wish I could gain weight even if just was 10lbs! Your almost 1/2 way there!

Keep it up...I'm headed in the opposite direction. I'm hoping training for a marathon will accomplish that!

Joslyn · 01-01-2008, 02:51 PM #13 (**permalink**)

good luck! i'm aiming at 130 pounds as well...but i need to LOOSE weight to get there. :/

kimmy · 08-14-2008, 09:00 PM #14 (**permalink**)

108 now.

i can scale a six foot wall now, though. and do squats with ninety extra pounds in dumbbells on my shoulders. sweet.
