wheel covered it…but I would say you need to take a starting measurement and then measure yourself every two to three weeks…thigh/shoulder/chest/waist/arms0 -

Tape measure, calipers, electrical impedance scale, DEXA, BodPod, or water tank. The first three are easy and cheap the last three not so much but give more accurate measurements. The first three will give good relative measurements at least. The point is you can't know what your gains are in LBM and FM until you take some measurements. That rate of increase is not likely to be much in the way of muscle but water, glycogen and fat, plus a bit of muscle. If you gained more than 2lbs of muscle in that amount of time you are genetically gifted.
