I would like to recommend adding some cottage cheese to the PBJ sandwich. The mushy nature fits in pretty well, and you get some more protein that way.

Yummers.

5g of monohydrate (cheap stuff) per day is all you need. no loading. no cycling. just keep taking it. You can take it any time during the day – it doesn’t matter.

3000 kcals is relative. it just depends on your activity. some people have to eat upwards of 4000-5000 kcals per day to gain weight. thankfully, I don’t have this problem.

Thanks, I had a couple more questions.
I’m starting to take creatine, but I have no idea how much I should take a day and when. I looked it up and found all sorts of contrasting ideas.

Also, for someone with a high metabolism, would around 3000 calories a day be a good intake to gain weight?

if your goal is to build some muscle and gain weight, YES. You should cut out the extra activity, focus on eating more and train 3-4 times per week. No more than this.

Your second question is impossible answer but I’d say you should see improvement within the first month if you get after it.
