I'm a hardgainer; started around 5'10", 125lb (a while back), and am now up to 140lb aiming for 150lb over the next 3-4 months.
The key for me was to lower my exercise habits a lot and switch to weights while minimizing my walking/jogging etc.
The key is to eat a lot and to eat often. Aim for a diet that's like 15-25% fat, 35% protein, remaining carbs, while also aiming for around 150g of protein a day. I go through around 4-5 cottage cheese tubs every week, as well as eating a protein bar or two a day, on top of chicken twice a day.
I've started to get a bit of fat around the stomach, but I'll probably exercise that off when I reach my target weight which is somewhere around 160-170lbs.
