Add some almond butter or peanut butter to at least three meals a day for good fats. Sleep 8 hours a night. You also need to aim for over 3000 calories a day.
I am 5'10", 202 currently, and have 6.7% bodyfat. Guess what? I am not trying to lean out. I actually start my contest prep diet monday. Until now, I have been doing a clean bulk, but my bodyfat stays low because I bust my f*cking ass nearly to death in the gym, and do 30 minutes cardio at 4:30am 3x a week, so my body uses everything I put in it. I take in 5000calories a day, 400 grams protein, 800 grams carbs, 10,000mg Amino Acids, Animal Pak Multivitamins 2x a day, etc etc etc
Train correctly and according to what YOUR body needs, eat a lot, sleep a lot, rest as aften as possible, etc.
If you are doing all these things correctly, your body has no choice but to grow.
