Can skinny guys easily bulk up?

If you really want to bulk up, just drink Creatine every day and don't workout. :biggrin:

The 5x5 workout is pretty good if you have the time to commit. I don't and therefor stick to a pair of dumbbells. For a bunch of different exercises and workouts, check out http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/workout.htm

As already mention, don't forget cardio. It is a great workout for your heart, lungs, and legs.

Diet is really important here too. Stay away from all the processed garbage. Balance your meals with more protein, less starch, and less carbs. Eat more often too, 5-6 times per day but smaller quantities. Also, wait at least 2 hours after working out to eat.
 
Your workout advice is sound,but the OP wants to bulk up. He needs to eat as soon as possible after working out, not after his body has had two hours to catabolize muscle.
Also, he will need to eat decent quantities for his meals. Small meals aren't gonna cut it to put on mass, especially if you are naturally lean.
