Okay guys, I’m looking for any help or suggestions. I’ve been training for a few years and managed to put on a significant amount of lbm however although I’ve added a fair bit on I’m only about 140lbs 10-12%bf. My diet is clean and I am on a calorie surplus and seeing some weight gains however I get to this current point where my weight gain only seems to take the form of fat gain. I see weight increases however the tape-measure backs up my suspicions that most of my gain comes from fat with most significant increases occurring in the bits I don’t want.

Any suggestions as to how I can rectify this and put on more muscle than fat. I’ve always had cardio at a minimum… about 2 sessions per week just now. Would increasing this help in any way? I’m already pushed to get it in which also leads me to another factor –‘Stress’ could it be stress that plays a big part in this?
