I don't think you look bad at all. Good things happen over time. Keep with a good eating and training routine.

I'm not sure of your exact workout routine, so this is what I would suggest. One week do your strength training and the next do your isolation movements, or you can do two weeks and two weeks. If you are properly doing your isolation (hypertrophy) movements then you will need to rest those muscles more, meaning don't work a certain muscle more than once that week. You can however work your compound movements twice a week as you don't need as much rest/recovery for that type of exercise. I definitely would not incorporate both strength and isolation into one week, you will simply over train your muscles and not allow for proper recovery. Make sure your workouts do not exceed 60min and to get proper rest.

I suggested the chest press machine because IMO it is hard to isolate your pects using dumbbells. I prefer the type that angle inward as you extend, as it becomes easier to squeeze your pects at the top of the movement. If you are doing full ROM then your are not isolating your pects. When doing isolation you should find a weight that allows you to work just that muscle and to get a good squeeze.

Either way. I'm too scared to do steroids. But the temptation is sooooo strong. But I'm scared shitless to fuk up and rip me for life.

Hopefully I can get somewhere after the 3 year mark

I agree with your general sentiment. However, fear is a shitty reason to not do something.

Spend the next few years working hard, eating right, and educating yourself on gear in all of it’s forms. When it’s actually time to take it to a new level, you’ll be properly armed with the information you require to do so safely.
