I am looking for some guidance on how many days I should work out; what excercises I should do & what, if any, supplements I should take. I am looking to build up some muscle & keep in good shape. I really press to put weight on. I am 6'4" - 195. I would like to get to about 215, but a solid 215, not a flabby 215. I appreciate all recommendations.
Thanks
John

meal two slices wheat toast glass of juice 4-6 egg whites
meal two cup of oatmeal cup of fat free milk with honey and raisons
meal three one cup of brown rice chicken breasts letttuce tomato
meal four chicken potatoes veggies
meal five some type of fish i have tuna alot with cup of brown rice and some olive oil also have some more juice after lifting.
meal six two cups of milk a banna two table spoons of all natrual penut butter
if your not gaining in these diet add a slice or two of brea to meal 3 and five and a half of cup of rice to some meals if it still isnt working. people go over board when they arent gaining wieght and add another thousand or so calories when it isnt nesscary. good luck bro.....

John,
Down the road if you still need an extra bump look up Dianabol and Deca-Durabolin.
God Speed.

John,
I don't wanna step on any toes but...
if you want to put on 20 lbs of muscle (no flab) that will take some time. According to the professionals it takes a year to put on 11lbs of muscle (of course body chemistry will change things to a degree).
As for the workout below... it's ok but take it with a grain of salt. Strength isn't gained in a lot of reps

if i had known what i am about to tell you when i first started at your age - i would have probably been a good 20kg heavier than what i am now.
YOU NEED TO HIT THE WHOLE BODY TWO OR THREE TIMES A WEEK.
squat
bench press
pull ups
bicep curl
close grip bench press (or other tricep exercise)
this is al one work out.
