5-6 times = over training.
do 3-4 max. plenty of rest.
pile in calories, carbs and protein. you may put on a bit of a gut but you can get rid of that later when youve built up a bit of frame/muscle.
to gain 'good weight' does involve gaining some 'bad weight', but the bad weight (fat) can be sorted at a later date leaving the muscle on show.

Try full body workouts, with a two day break in between.
Do one exercise for each muscle group, and aim for a around 4 sets of 8 reps.
Focus on compound movements, thats what will add the mass ie. benchpress, squat, deadlift, pullups...
Take in as many "good" calories as possible, and aim for at least 1 grams of protein per pound of bodyweight a day. Eat foods such as chicken, steak, fish, wholemeal bread, wholewheat pasta, brown rice.
After every workout down a weight gainer shake, or protein shake, this is the best time for your body to get the nutrients it needs to grow.
SLEEP: get at least 8 hours of sleep a night, you dont grow in the gym, its while u rest that the growth is gonna happen!
Be patient, aim to put on around 2 lbs a week of lean body mass, any more and you will be gaining to much fat
Try creatine: it can give you more strength, but will add some water weight to you
LIFT HEAVY!!!! Lift the heaviest weights you possibly can and complete around 4 sets of 8 reps, the lastfew reps of each set should feel almost impossible.
