    Hello, and welcome!

    Honestly, I'd encourage you not to try to gain weight truly fast. Fast weight gain is going to be mostly fat, so not very health-promoting or appearance-improving.

    I'd suggest the best approach would be to gain weight gradually over a period of time, and couple that with faithfully performing a good progressive strength training program, and getting good overall nutrition, especially but not exclusively ample protein. That would give you the best chance of gaining mostly muscle, and result in better health and appearance both.

    The people here who want to gain weight usually post in this part of the Community:

    There are already some good threads there you can read to get ideas to try, especially in the "Most Helpful Posts" subsection there.

    Wishing you success!

    Hi brother, If you really want to gain weight, start by making sure you're eating more calories than you burn every day. foods like rice, oats, peanut butter, eggs, and full-fat dairy can really help. Strength training will also help turn those extra calories into muscle rather than just fat.
    It takes time, but with consistency. Feel free to keep us updated on your progress.
