As some of you know i've been training BJJ for the past few months. Everything is going great and i'm excelling at a very fast rate. I've started cross training in Muay Thai (wasn't positive I should do 2 things so soon but i've been able to absorb all info), and i'm coming along very well in there as well. The only problem is that I weigh about 150, and that would be too small to fight at 155... so does anybody have any methods of gaining & maintaining weight while still doing your training 4-5 times a week? Any help would be appreciated, i'm wanting to get to about 165+ if possible.

Thanks
