Another pitfall I had was as a hardgainer, if such a thing exists, is that I would eat what I thought was alot 5 days a week, and then slack on the weekends, and come up short for the week and make little progress. If your serious about meeting your goal, do the math, figure your tdee and eat above that, with proper macro breakdown, and do it seven days a week. You will grow. As for detail on everything as already mentioned take some time, read all the stickies. Then come back with specific questions based on your research. Good luck!!
