Ok, if you are trying to put on bulk weights is the right way forward. You need to do less reps of a heavier weight. Ie, instead of 12 reps of 20kgs you need to be doing 6 to 8 reps of 25 or 30kgs.
Also, dont train the same muscle groups every day, ulternate between them. One day legs and back one day arms and abbs. Next day go for a run.
muscles science is a very good shake, i would suggest starting with that one. Also, you need to take your shake straight after gym. Half and hour later, you need to eat something like tuna toast or egg toast to suppliment your shake.
Kev’s answer is pretty solid. The only change I’d note is that you are a hardgainer (aka skinny) newbie. As a result, his routine has a bit too much volume in it for you. That should be what you are doing in 3-6 months.
With only 2 weeks of experience and a hardgainer body, you need to do 2 sets per exercise and only 2-3 exercises per body part. You’ll also need extra rest so you should be on a 4 day split (workout mon and tues, rest wed, workout thur and fri, rest weekends.) And do NOT do much cardio. Max of once or twice a week. You’ll just eat up your body’s resources instead of building muscle with it. References :
