Getting muscle chub

Hey all, I've posted a thread before but lowkey got blasted on it. So to summarize that my gf and I have been dating for a few months now and she wants me to be a bit bigger. She says she wants me to be wider and she wants to feel small (she is a bit thicker, not fat by any means though). I am taller but I came into this relationship around I'd say 135-140ish pounds and now I am up to 165. I honestly barely see a difference. Maybe I've widened out a tiny bit and I can see some pudge on my belly but I am not really "chubby" (being that lanky can't really see it). When I first met her she said she'd like if I was bigger, and I was initially confused but after talking for a little bit about it, she's come out and says she wants me to be muscle chub and heavier set, and to widen out. I am about to start hitting the gym again, just been really busy with college classes and all that. What can I do to maximize weight gain to get that muscle chub physique? Thanks for tips if you have any. I can the and answer any questions.

as a former fitness/gym nut for more than 20 years (and now a big fatty), my advice is: eat as much as you can, especially protein. if you are starting to lift heavier weights to gain muscle, you are going to need to really increase the calories you're taking in.

i found it hard to put on weight when i was exercising a lot, but i wasn't stuffing at that time. if you can keep fueling your muscles (and your chusmiley you'll do great! you'll want to target well over normal calories, though (shoot for 5,000 a day or more if you can manage it).

Thanks for the tips. Is there any certain protein intake that I should get, I've heard of mass gainer protein powder. Any idea if it's worth it.
