Let's see. You want to deepen that chest, pack on some arm size and elsewhere as well, no doubt. I used to be in your position myself -- 130 to 135lbs at 5'8". I did the big movements -- full squats, chins, dips -- for a few years and now I maintain 160 to 165lbs. Back then the only supplement I took was a protein shake I think. About the only supplements I take today are fish oil and zma.

Don't overthink it, man.

From a roster of 7 or 8 exercises, select 2 to do each training session. Do 5 to 7 sets (not including warm-up sets) of each exercise. For 4 workouts in a week, you can go through the list of 8. After 3 weeks, mix 'em up, increase the sets, whatever. Get a lot of sleep (very important) and you will get the results you want.

I saw an article on T-nation about eastern european bodybuilding by christian thibaudeau.

TESTOSTERONE NATION

The program outlined there is too advanced for you but embrace the 8 or so basic movements (except the upright rows) listed in that article.

Forget the cardio for now.
