Well for just lbs there is just eating more but that is just FAT.
As for gaining muscle that's pretty hard....I've heard of success with the electro-bikes. But I admit I don't know much about using that.
I'm an incomplete so in my case I'm able to do SOME walking with crutches, I swim & do some modified yoga for the exercising of my legs but even though I've been working VERY hard to prevent it after 21yrs there is still some mild loss.
I wish you luck in beefing up.
