Best Exercises for Weight Gain

Hey Y'all!

I am 5'5" and 110 lbs. My goal weight is in the 130-140 range. I've gotten some pretty solid advice on my caloric intake and overall diet - but I am a little ignorant as to which exercises will help me gain weight. Any advice on the subject would be greatly appreciated, please!

    No exercise will help you gain weight... weight gain is all about eating more.

    working out/exercises/training = health- fitness- specific training goals

    food- either deficit- surplus or evened out- will result in weight loss- gain or simple maintenance.
