Lots of good advice given above. I just want to reinforce, that it is a simple energy equation. If you are meeting your basic protein requirements, the extra calories you need can come from simple carbs. As long as you are working out hard enough to stay on the right side of the energy equation, you will not get fat.

I also want to say that, although weight training is good for building mass, you can also achieve great results using bodyweight exercises, such as pushups, dips, chins, handstand pushups etc. without the need for equipment or a gym. You also have less chance of injury to your joints and tendons. When lifting weights, for the greatest mass gains, put most of your energy into compound exercises that recruit the greatest number of muscle groups.

A final thought, remember, muscle is mostly water, so be sure to stay well hydrated.
