20 year old newbie, please have pity on me, hows my workout?

Hello, I'm new to this group, but I've been reading a lot of the old posts and it seems there are some knowledgable people here. I just started a new workout routine 2 weeks ago, and I was hoping for some input on it. It was generated by the online 'Personal Trainer' from menshealth.com (which I know is a magazine a lot of you aren't a fan of, but from what I've read on the newsgroup and elsewhere, what it came up with seems pretty good to me for a person of my body type.) Here is some pertinent information about myself:

age: 20 height: 6'2' weight: 2 weeks ago, 163, now 169lbs the following measurements haven't changed in the two weeks chest: 39' largest part of arm: 12' middle of thigh: 19' waist (at navel): 33'

Here is my workout for the upcoming week: TUESDAY Machine Chest Press 150x8x3 Pec Deck Flyes 60x12x2 Back Close-Grip Pulldowns 90x8x3 Wide-Grip Front Pulldowns 70x210 Lower Back Machine Low Back Extensions 110x10x1 Abdominals Knee Tucks 15x3 Crunches 20x3

THURSDAY Machine Shoulder Press 100X8X3 Trapezius Dumbbell Upright Rows 30X8X2 Triceps Machine Triceps Extensions 50X8X3 Abdominals Knee Tucks 15x3 Crunches 20x3

SUNDAY Thighs Angled Leg Press 220x10x3 Lying Leg Curls 60x14x3 Calf Presses 220x10x1 Biceps Standing Alternate Dumbbell Curls 25x8x3 Abdominals Knee Tucks 15x3 Crunches 20x3

As you can see from my stats, I am tall, but quite thin and weak! I've made decent gains, however, in the first two weeks going from 120 chest press to 150, from 190 leg press to 220, and from barely being able to do 20lb curls to being able to do 20lbsx8x3. Also, I've gained 6 pounds, although might that be mostly water gains since my measurements haven't changed? (You should also know that the Kwik Size XXXL Lee Labrada weight gainer I am using has 5g of creatine in each serving). I've come to realize how important eating is to gaining mass, so I've been trying to eat 5 to 6 meals every day for a total of about 3000 to 3500 calories, which can be hard being in college, not being close to a cafeteria or restaurant. So I guess that's it. I'd really appreciate any thoughts on what I've accounted above.

Okay, here goes, point by point

Ugh, never use that sort of stuff. Magazines - most of them in general, in fact - are either geared towards sedentary professionals who don't know how to train, or steroid enhanced genetic freaks. Sad but true.

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaay too much, and unecessary to boot. Try 2 - 3 sets of just a few excercises - squats, deadlifts, bench press, curls, and some kind of tricep excercise, either french press or close grip bench press. Do these just three days a week. Your enthusiasm is commendable, but this much is going to overtrain you in a hurry, and then you'll lose strength - maybe even hurt yourself. Also, if you don't do these large, multi-joint excercises, then nothing else is going to do that much - you'll be wasting your effort. Do the big three - bench press, squats, deadlift, then add in maybe two more excercises. Beleive me these will pack on mass.

Possibly, possibly not, but I wouldn't sweat it either way. Guys with metabolisms like ours can gain and lose five pounds in a week, it happens to me all the time. Putting on 10, 15, 20 pounds, that's something else...

Good for you, not adhearing to that was my first major mistake! You're already ahead of most of the people you'll see in gyms if you live with that in mind.

I'm in college too. You live in a dorm, or have an apartment? If you have an apartment (or a big enough dorm room) then try as much as possible to shop for groceries. Cheapest way to get lots of food, and the convenience tends to encourage you to eat more.

You're built like a tampon.
