Everytime you gain weight you have to eat more calories than what you were before you gained the weight. Your body adapts to what you are eating. Like everyone else said, eat more. 3,500 calories isn’t that much. That is about 600 calories meals 6 times a day. Add an extra 100 calories to each meal.

See you just need to get stronger man, when I stopped worrying about set and reps and tempos and started training for strength is when i gained most of my muscle…
Try Westside for a Skinny bastards
Train with good intensity focus on getting stronger and increase your calories if your not gaining weight…
eat more natural PB & J’s on german dark wheat bread…soooo gooooood!!! Many calories there depending upon how much peanut butter you use.
With every meal, take 2 tablespoons of olive oil…straight from the bottle onto the spoon and into your mouth. That’s at least 240 calories right there, and if you add that to 4 of your meals, guess what?! 960 more calories right there!!!
Go to mcdonalds.
I got stuck in the same situation, I’m just going to keep eating until I start gaining weight again. It’s really not that hard.
Start drinking a gallon of milk every day. Its cheap and does the body good. Count your calories too, on paper. It works for me. It gets hella easy after you do it for a while. Its a good way to know for sure you’re really eating as much as you should.

hey im wondering if anyone can tell me what im doing wrong, I started at 142 pounds and after three months im only up to 147,im clean bulking and have been getting 3500 cals a day plus 200 grams of protien and Surge during and pwo. Also cottage cheese be4 bed and im working out legs and back just as much as everything else. I also as making sure to get enough rest. i just dont seem to know why im not gaining weight.[/quote]
So you have gained 5 lbs in 3 months of a clean bulk. Unless you gained some fat, you’re progress close to what it should be and you’re on course to gain 20 lbs in this first year. I’m not sure what you were hoping for but your expectations may be a little high if you’re thinking your gains should be more than this without eating a lot of juke calories.

The end.
Eat more if you want to gain more. Being on a good program revolving around getting brutally strong (for moderate reps) will ensure that the weight gain is muscle and not fat. Add in some cardio if the fat starts to get out of hand.
Edit: oops didn’t see that this was an old thread. You seem to have wised up since this thread Crod. Good job listening to people’s advice. 
eat dirty
lol 9 months old!
