I currently weigh 158lbs, I am looking to get to 165lbs. I beleive I am a hardgainer. Right now I'm musclar and show a little abs. I workout with weights 4 days a week and do 10 minutes of cardio on the other 3 days.
I'm looking to get a little bigger and ripped. My macros over a 3 day period are: Calories 1736 Fat 65.9 Carbs 213.2 Protein 93.5. I estimate my lean muscle mass at 142lbs. Any feedback, suggestions, or advice on how to reach my goal would be greatly appreciated. Thanx

You're nowhere close to being a hardgainer. Most folks maintain on 15x their bodyweight in calories, which for you is about 2400 calories; you wanna gain, you just gotta eat more. I eat more than you when I'm DIETING, and I weigh 145 lbs. Get your calories up to about 3000 a day. The easiest and cheapest way to do this is with a few shots of olive oil - you can toss an ounce of olive oil into a protein shake to boost both your calories (the oil) and your protein (the shake).
Happy bulking.

Seems pretty straight forward, I'll do as suggested and let you know how it turns out. Thanks for the advice, I appreciate it.

It really is pretty straight forward.
I see good things in your future. Check back in a month and let us know how many calories you averaged, and how much weight you gained, deal?
