eating 4k+ kcals was an example...you can gain with 2500 also...keep your metabolism running{not leave time to burn what you have eaten}maybe you should rip your degree off

Keep your metabolism running? Not leave time to burn what you've eaten? Do you think your metabolism stops when you're not eating and then you suddenly become fat? You should be using everything you're eating.

Not sure if srs or just stupid. Seriously, what understanding of metabolism do you have? Or do you just spout crap you've read on the internet?

Try eating more carbs, I'm not sure why you need to gain weight for basketball though :P
But yeah, if you want to gain weight try to eat food with more calories (don't go overboard though and just eat sweets and chocolate) and more carbs.

I'm 156lbs currently. I want to gain around 19lbs so I'll be 175lbs for basketball'

I eat a generally balanced and varied diet, and I go to the gym 3/4 times a week.

I read the stickied threads but I was wondering if someone could give me more personal advice..

Thanks

Well I'm assuming you want to gain lean mass and not fat, if you want to gain fat - eat more, do less. Anyway, protein, ****loads of it. Try about 220 grams of protein a day. Have a lot of carbs before your workouts. Lift heavier weights. Creatine is your friend. As a general rule, no more than 10 reps of the maximum weight you can handle (for most exercises) and 3 sets of each for bigger gains.
