How do you slow down your metabolism? I thought you done that by eating regularly?

My meals are 3 mains (breakfast, lunch, dinner) with snacks in between (Carbs pre workout, Cottage cheese before bed etc)

Edit : I also take 3 protein shakes a day.
No, you speed your metabolism up by eating regularly. You slow it down by eating larger in less increments. Usually, someone eating 3000 cals in 6-7 meals will have a faster metabolism than someone eating 3000 cals in 3-4 meals. Since you want to gain weight, you're going to want to slow it down a tad.
