Sup /fit/

I'm 5'8", 130 lbs, and I'm planning on bulking up.

My goal is to gain 15-25 lbs by 6 months.

Now I want to increase my muscle strength while doing this, while putting on more mass.

I've decided to create a workout from scratch, probably lifting 3 days a week. With that being said, I have a couple of questions.

1. How should I build this workout? If you guys have a good workout already feel free to post it up and why it's good.
2. How many sets / reps should I do?
3. Knowing that this process will take awhile, I need to find a way to be eating alot for a long term. Protein powder will help but whats the best way to eat alot of food over a long term, and whats the best stuff to eat? I'm thinking eggs and tuna....

(Pic related, this is the physique I strive to attain).

5x5 or Starting Strength to get a base, then switch out to a bodybuilding split or periodization program after you've plateaued. Eat 1.5 grams protein per pound of body weight a day, and eat as much other food as you can stomach. Plan on gaining 10 lbs or so over what your goal is, then spend a month cutting down to it.

Thanks

Also, I masturbate once a day, should I cut down on that? I hear it increases your testosterone levels if you don't fap.

I've seen studies that say your testosterone is at it's highest slightly after you masturbate (I think one said for about 4 hours afterward)

So In summary? Shut the fuck up and wank, it won't hurt you.

While I agree that the whole test. thing isn't worth a second thought unless you're an elite athelete, I think it does kill a lot of people's motivation if done too frequently (varies per person, but I seem to function better in general if I only do it a couple times a week).
