Not sure this has been said because I browsed only the first two posts . . . I worked for as a trainer for fifteen years and trained as a body builder for many more. Having said that, I have two suggestions and a few helpful hints:
1. Do not use steroids. Everyone I know who used them, myself included, end up regretting it after the fact due to several different reasons. Go as far as you can with natural gains and learn to be content.
2. Work your legs harder and more often than your upper body (break up the legs into three major groups and you'll find you can do more). Legs need a lot of stimulation to grow and you'll look much better than the idiots who simply focus on the bench. I suggest starting with a Smith machine and squats.
Increase your protein intake but don't spend all your money on supplements. Lightly boiled egg whites and plain broiled chicken breasts work well, too.
A word of warning: if you have any tendency towards obsession, I highly recommend not getting into this activity. It can become overwhelming very quickly and overshadow everthing else.
