    You cant control where you gain... that is based on genetics. The best you can do is slow bulk, light progressively and cycle between bulks and cuts.

    Keep at it I'm currently eating inbetween 3300 to 4000 calories a day and I walk about 8 miles a day to and from work but I've put on 2 pounds in a week. Maybe try eating some cashew nuts or mixed nuts as a snack throughout the day as well.
