HI guys and girls

Looking to add some serious weight over the next 6 months and was wondering if anybody uses MFP to gain weight and how effective they have found it. If so have you used the MFP caloric intake or customized it for your personal goals ?
Any suggestions or tips on using the app will be much appreciated.

    I used it to maintain weight but it can easily be used to gain. Just set your calorie goal to a high number and use MFP to track your calories and macros.

    MFP has set me around 3200 calories as I'm 5 foot 9, 168 pounds with an active lifestyle. do you think this is around a good ball park to start with, or is it best to work by my custom macros
