I'd consider myself a "hardgainer" as well but if you read the forums (I think bodybuilding.com Starting Strength thread) they recommend one simple thing and it's already been said: eat. Eat anything to fuel muscle growth. Especially if you're young (high school young) and it'll work even better. I haven't tested this out myself but they say to eat without prejudice, meaning pizza and McDonalds aren't off-limits. Mind you this is dependent on your workout goals and your genetics, so do your research first.

SS is an excellent program that focuses on olympic lifts and developing core strength. There are no "arms" days here!
