First, I want to start off by saying consult with your doctor or primary care physician or nutritionist first, to do what it best for your body and medical background. But with that being said, as far as general advice, to build muscle you can lift weights 3 times a week, one day focusing on legs and lower body, one day upper body/arms and one day back, with abs for all 3 of those days. Also, your protein intake should be pretty good and focusing on hydration as well. And SLEEP WELL, sleep helps your muscles restore themselves and never underestimate the productive power of a good rest day.
