I'm working out trying to build muscle. i can't digest protein powder/ mass gainer. do i have to eat a whole lot of meat? how much?

Lift weights: The best way to build muscle is to do weight training. Go to your local y or gym and see a personal trainer who can give you a program designed for your particular needs. If you stick with the exercise plan you should build muscle mass. Eating more protein or taking supplements won't help.
