To build muscle and gain weight, skinny individuals must track their daily calories to ensure they are eating enough. Swapping low-calorie foods for calorie-dense options, incorporating liquid calories, and eating consistently every few hours can help meet these nutritional goals. Tracking body composition changes over time ensures that weight gain is coming from muscle rather than water.
