Default Bulking up, help!

Decided recently that I want get fit, gain weight/muscles, so I've joined the gym.

I'm 155lb, 5'10 with a high metabolism, so far my plan of attack is simply to do pyramid strength training w/ some cardio 5 days a week.

I've been reading a little about supplements such as creatine/protein powders/MRP's etc but really have no idea how effective they are. I've also read that I need to start eating a lot more (durr) and will obv be doing that.

I think there is probably a few gym enthusiasts among the OOT community so I've decided to post here and hopefully get some pointers. help!

lol dont do cardio that makes you lose weight, do weight lifting only. And post this in health and fitness so they can flame you for being the 348348th guy who asks about this.

First learn to read previous threads, then you can worry about bulking.

Do Starting Strength (in the FAQ).

There's nutritional advice there as well.

Eat everything thats not bolted to the ground. And if its not edible then lift it off the ground.
