Wow, crazy story. I'd say eat everything in sight and do Rippetoe's starting strength (google it). Drink lots of milk (GOMAD=gallon of milk a day... one of the important aspects of starting strength). Getting big and strong won't make you able to fight though so keep that in mind. You'll need some MMA training or something for that.

thanks for the quick reply. will rippletoe's starting strength also put some size on me. im not looking to gain tons of size but i was hopping to gain 2-3 in size inches and also lots of strength.

Why do you have to be near the SOB? Can't you see your cousins without going to the miscreant's house? You don't have to announce to the bollocks that you are dropping over to see them.

You must take the long term view. Do Starting Strength. Buy the book, or you'll probably do it wrong. You'll have to eat a calorie surplus. Milk is the best supplement.

If you want to be able to handle yourself, disregard anything to do with sport fighting. Real fighting has nothing to do with rules. It is about injuring the other guy and sending him to hospital or the morgue. It is not horseplay. Nothing to do with pain or any such nonsense. Adrenalized guys you just pissed off by hurting them will ignore the pain and tear into you. Unless you are fixing to get Darwinized, don't ever look for a fight, or seek out a situation or location where one is likely. To do so is proof that there is no end to human stupidity, and that you are volunteering to be removed from the gene pool.

I used to be 130lbs for years btw. Took a lot longer than three months to get to 215.

Just a heads up, even if you gained 30 lbs in 3 months you won't become a boxer. I know you want to get big/strong for other reasons as well but if your main issue right now is self defence then go join a boxing gym for 3 months, while training in the weight room/kitchen as well. Just don't go fighting some dick in front of his kids.
