Normally you see people wanting to lose weight, however, gaining muscle works on the same principle as losing............ just in the opposite direction. If you want to put on mass, you need to eat about 500cals per day above maintenance and lift weights. I recommend Rippetoe's starting strength program.

It won't be accurate if you are already at an extremely low amount of body fat. You can be skinny and still appear out of shape. You may need to gain some muscle to fill out a bit. This is why I get my body fat percentage checked from time to time. Typically some muscle loss will occur while cutting fat.
