Start incorporating HIIT?

Look at sprinters bodies that are absolutely jacked, because of a few key factors. HIIT doesn't catabolize your gains unlike longer LISS exercises (although it still has benefits), especially anything to do with marathons. It helps increase fat burning potential over the course of 48 hours. it's a good compliment to a weight lifting routine on a cut. You on the other hand do not need to cut you need to bulk.

No one gives a fuck about abs on a skinny dude except for the thots in your school, once you leave high school you'll see that for yourself. You need to keep lifting, and eat 500-600 over your tdee. Track your macros and calories, go on a structured routine and in a year you should be hovering around 175 in great shape IF you are consistent.

6'0 180 very lean and I only do HIIT sessions when I'm cutting for the summer abs. I wouldn't do it based on your stats because there's no way in hell your big at those metrics. If you really want to do HIIT for any reason make sure to mix it up weekly to make it more enjoyable. Tire flips and sled are some personal favorites.

Are you possibly 5’2?

I do HIIT. It increases speed, agility, and endurance faster than long distance running. I do it as part of my physical training. It will increase your gains. Look at sprinters' bodies and then go look at long distance runners. Sprinters are jacked.

Probably superfluous if you're already doing cardio-intensive sports like MMA or BJJ. If you have time and energy to spare, take more classes rather than doing cardio for cardio's sake.

I'm 5`11 and 77kg, low body fat. And I would say I'm very much in skinny bucket, not, pretty big.
