Peanut butter is your friend when trying to pack it on. and if you don't mind working it off, mix it with syrup and dip in your favorite bread.

I won't get into a fuss about calorie intake and muscle growth as it takes a combination of many things to build real muscle. Just trying to help the fellow out, peanut butter is a calorie dense food with good mono-unsaturated fats, omega 3, and protein used as a staple in many powerlifting and body building diets when trying to make gains.

You noticed I did not talk about your workout routine. That is because as long as you're hitting the weights hard and pushing yourself to its limit that is all you need to do for working out. Weight gain is 70% diet, 30% workout routine |

I'm not looking to bulk up just put on a few pounds of muscle. If it takes time that's fine. If it doesn't happen that's fine too. I'm in pretty good shape already but have started working out as a preventive measure. My job is pretty physical and keeps me in decent shape but I want something more to help with muscle loss due to aging. I guess it's my ounce of prevention so to speak. I don't go to a gym I workout at home. With work and family I just not able to be at a gym for an hour or two everyday. At home I can hit the weights when I have 10/15 minutes to spare. I keep going back anytime I have spare time. It may not be the best plan but it has to be better than doing nothing.

My problem with peanut butter is that it taste to sweet for me. I do not eat sweet stuff. On the rare occasion I do eat something sweet it will be a small bowl of ice cream.
I also do not drink milk. I love dairy foods and things made using milk but you will never see me drink a glass. Weird I know. Lol |

Peanut butter is not the way to go about it unless you want to put on fat, especially dipping it in syrup on bread. This isn't the 70's and we know a lot more about nutrition now.
8 grams of protein per every 180 cals, and those 8 grams may not get used. "Protein" isn't a single thing, so protein in peanut butter is not the same as protein in chicken. Well rounded amino acid profiles are what you need for building muscle, not some fat gainer that swells your face. Aim for 1.5 grams of protein per pound of body fat, spread it out evenly through your meals (38 grams per meal in your case), lift heavy in the 12 rep range doing super sets, and save that syrupy peanut butter carb ball for right after your workout to give back to your muscles what was depleted in your workout.
