How much should i eat to gain muscle mass?
I want to gain muscle mass but i don’t know how much i should eat. I play soccer 3 days a week for a total of about 6-7 hours. I also work out with 15 pound dumbbells for about 25-30 minutes, 3-4 days a week. Can someone please tell me how much i should eat for muscle mass and how i should change my workout routine?

but your not gunna get a very good workout with only one set of dumbbells . Your gunna need a variety of weights, and ideally some sort of weight bench. You wanna do 8-12 reps per set, 3-4 sets pr exercise, with as heavy as weights as possible.
find your basic metabolic rate and eat at least that much… maybe up it by 500 calories per day. Try and get about 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight per day… form all sources.
