I wouldn't risk using steroids for the mere fact that you want to gain weight. Steroids can cause physical and detremental effects to your body that you will regret, and may even alter your weight gain attempts. The key thing is to EAT. And I know it sounds easier than it is, but for a guy your height and weight, your body can easily be burning 3500 calories a day just by watching TV.. I posted a link of where you can insert your height and weight information and it will calculate it for you, however, you might be a special case and be burning significantly more calories.
I'd recommend drinking and eating a lot of protein, especially if you're working out, so your body won't be feeding off your fat, and eat 3 times a day (big portions) versus 6 small meals a day that a person trying to lose weight would do. This will slow down your metabolism and put your body in "fast" mode which then will start storing the fat from food since you've began eating differently and less frequently, your body will think it's in survival mode, so it will slow down your metabolism, which will burn less energy, which then leads to less calories burned versus calories you've put in. I'd also recommend to read the articles on this site that I sourced as well. Good Luck.

WORK OUT DUDE!!!

I used to be skinny too!!!!!
AND I wanted to gain some weight....and I am lifting now.

It works dude!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm having the same problem you are i'm 5'9" 130 also and i'm 18 what a coincidence lol. I'd like to know how to build up some muscle mass too. I'm gonna try swimming and eating about 4000 calories a day & see if that works. What blood type do you have? That might be a factor. Mines O Sometimes I think I might have a tapeworm or something lol

DON'T TAKE STEROIDS! The best way to gain mass is to eat a lot of fiber and protein. Eating six times a way will help speed up your metabolism and if you inculde working out atlest 3 days a week. You should see some results within a month.

ummmmmmm...please no steriods....lets see...i have three brothers so i should know...one of my brothers eats a lot...usually lots of fruits and veggies...and he weight lifts a lot. in human anatomy, we learned that the more you weight lift, the stronger your bones get. that's why you get more "buff" and "big-boned." anyway, hope this helps :)

build some lean muscle

just me glad u ain't obese...mmmmmmkayyyy.

have a protien drink then go work out then have another one

DO NOT TAKE STEROIDS!!! You say you workout, Maybe you are working out too much,not eating the right foods,not enough calories. I've been training for 44 years so I know a little about it. If you are really serious check out cyberpump.com. Thers is a lot of great advice on training and diet that will help. Good luck.
