Small calorie surplus, strength train and wait patiently.0

What lifting program are you doing?0
-
Compound movements for legs, chest, back etc. Too many people do isolation movements expecting grand results.1

-Eat in a small surplus (gain up to 0.5lb per week to minimize fat gains)
-Get adequate protein and fat, fill the rest with carbs
-Follow a progressive lifting program for best results. If you don't have access to a gym, there are many programs that utilize bodyweight and dumbbells.
