Take steroids, or gain fat along with it.

Go for 20x body weight in pounds. This will optimize your gains.

How many calories do you currently consume?

FYI, your body can only gain so much muscle at once. 2lbs is WAY more than your body could possibly produce. Just think for a second if you gained 2lbs a week. In a year you would have gained over a 100 lbs. Not possible unless your looking to gain a lot of fat.

Why would you WANT to gain a lot of fat? At 6'0 155 lbs, you probably have a lot of potential to put on mass, idealy muscle mass. You need to know roughly about how much, on average, you currently consume in order to make a plan for the future. Aim to gain 0.5 - 1.0 lb a week, but if you stick to a solid diet and train intelligently, in a few months you will see solid gains. Every body is different, but at 6'0 155, you could afford to take in at least 2500 following say a 40/40/20 or 40/30/30 breakdown as long as your timing is right. PM me if you have any questions. Cheers and good luck.

Depends on what sort of budget you're working with man! If you have the cash, invest in more lean cuts of red meat, along with sweet potatos and brown rice! You should be living off of red meat right now!

Be sure you're eating every 2 hours dude, and I don't mean eating an apple or banana and some whey every 2 hours, I mean a meal, or a gainer in milk with almonds or peanut butter (natural peanut butter).

You won't be gaining 2lb a week, or even 1lb a week, but the gains will be steady if you stay consistent and on track with your eating and training (AND SLEEPING).

Take steroids

You're an ass.

Good call Foreman!

You THINK you want to gain a lot of fat, you don't you're just desperate for gaining some weight right now! Trust me man, just take the (mostly) lean gains, and let it be a steady ride...

Well you NEED to figure that sh*t out before you can start to make progress!

That's some sound advice brother, repped.

Ok so now you're a member of the Green Street Hooligans, or? What kind of reply is this man, come on! People are here giving you sound advice, and you throw something like this out there! Weak dude, weak!

Just be consistent man, and train and gain for the right reasons, not some ridiculous reason like "protecting your friends", protecting them from what, stop.

Isn't it a deficit of 3500 cal per pound?

So I would think it's an extra 1000 calories/day would gain you 2 lbs/week. Eat 2 extra Big Mac per day on top of what you usually eat should do it.

That wouldn't be good weight gain dude. Not a good idea.

A gain of like a pound or a pound and a half every 2 weeks is impressive gaining alone (and also realistic if you work hard enough), so I would aim for something like that. 2 a week really isn't reasonable.

That's just terrible advice.
