Trying to bulk up also have a high metabolism and I climb trees for a living so I'm pretty active from the hrs of 10-4 most days and I'm eating 4000 plus calorie a day and taking GNC mass gainer complex after every workout and a GNC bulk 1340 jus as an extra daily boost usually at night after dinner as hitting the gym 3 a week. Any help would be awesome!

    Are you gaining at 4000 calories? Are you following a structured lifting program? Generally, you need a good structured lifting program, protein around 1g per lb of lean body mass, fat around .35g and the rest can be carbs and a calorie surplus... generally 250 - 500 calories over your TDEE or 10% to 20% depending on which method you prefer.

    When I work I burn a lot of calories also.

    Doughnuts, peanut butter, pasteries, and ice cream help me get to the 4-6k I need depending on my burn.

    I don't take suppliments unless I'm stuck for calories which is hardly ever because I eat like it's a job.
