sorry, i was in a hurry and just decided to post it, wont happen, again sorry!
and thanks for welcome
No apologies necessary, redmond. Welcome to IronMagazine.
At 21 years of age I'd skip thoughts of anabolic steroids entirely and dedicate yourself to eating and lifting.
At first glance I'd say you have too much volume in your program.
Trade in those 4oz servings of chicken for 8 or 10oz servings of steak. Seems as if you have an incredibly fast metabolism.
I have to get some sleep but I'll comment further ASAP.
In the meantime you might want to seek out a member here named Built. Her signature has a link to great advice to help you achieve your current goals.
Again, forget about steroids at your age and eat, EAT, EAT! That combined with a three or four-day split routine with maybe ten sets per body part rather than your marathon sessions may help you to gain that weight you seek.

First - welcome!
Second - you're 21 - you're at your body's peak of natural testosterone production - don't spend your time worrying about steroids right now, Spend it improving the quality of your diet and your training- I agree - waaay overkill on the volume - IMO just too complicated a workout schedule. I'd simplify it and also readjust so you're getting more time doing the big basic moves and less of all this upper body work - back to back chest/back (both big muscles - which also pre-exhaust your bis & tris, which you then hit again the next day (i.e. no recovery time), take a day off and then repeat it before you even get to legs.
Spend some time on the training board. Check some basic stuff like a 5x5 program (you can google maddog 5x5 for example).
Thanks, glad to be part of this IM community lots of useful info on here sure beats alot of websites! I decided to not take any roids, starting Monday I'm going to do this gvt routine my friend gave me, looks pretty intense. Probably going to be the most promising so far! I will try and edit my diet, add some extra clean calories. I actually have 2 months left in the body building 12 week transformation contest. These last 2 weeks I have been really busy and diet hasn't been 100% but I still saw weight gain and increases in my measurements when I first started. Up 14lbs in the first month. So I'm pretty happy, this next month my goal is to hit 10 lbs shouldn't be hard! There was this fat ass guy at the gym the other day I thibk he was mocking me... He looks like the mitchelon man < most likely spelled that wrong the guy is probably weights 2 times more than me and I can db bench press more than him kiss my ass bitch! He was doing 75.. Sure was havin a hard time with those. I kinda grunted a little kinda helps and my friend tells me it's light weight and he started saying ( the fat guy) come on light weight really loud .. Over and over fucking douche then when I did 90's he sure stopped talking
