Hey man, if you're trying to gain more than 2-5 lbs of muscle, you're better off starting a mass gain regiment and then cutting the fat after.

A mass gain cycle entails high calorie, healthy fat, carb and protein consumption with a 5-8 rep range on weightlifting exercises using heavy weight. General amounts of macronutrients would be:

*Calories :: 15-20 per lb of body weight
*Fat :: .5-.7g per lb of body weight
--->(Peanut/Almond Butter, Olive Oil, Fish Oil, Walnuts, Flaxseed, Avocado)
*Carbs :: 2-3g per lb of body weight
--->(Wheat/Sourdough Bread, Sweet Potatoes, Oatmeal, Pasta, Beans, Brown Rice)
*Protein :: 1.5-2g per lb of body weight
--->(Whey powder, Chicken breast, Turkey Breast, Tuna, Cottage Cheese, Egg Whites, Sirloin)

The premise is you must consume more calories than you burn to gain mass. If you work out and diet correctly, that mass will be mostly muscle, with a small amount of fat (inevitable due impossibility of consuming precise calories)

The fat you gain on your belly during a mass gain won't really matter, since your muscle mass will give you shape and keep your proportions level.

Continue your mass gain cycle until you reach whatever weight you desire and you can begin a cutting phase (note you may lose a small amount of muscle during a cutting phase in an effort to burn fat). Because of your new muscle mass, you will burn calories much faster. Your cutting phase will require a different diet and exercise plan.
