If in 2 years you haven't had any progress, you need to reevaluate what the heck you are doing...
I have made great progress in 2 years. No roids necessary.0 -

I just want big arms and a big chest
I happened to see a guy this weekend that apparently did pretty much what you say you want, but took a slightly more well-rounded approach.
He had massive delts, chest and well-developed upper and lower arms. Seriously, it looked like he had balloons shoved under his shirt at chest and sleeves. He also had no traps to speak of, no significant back development, and he had clearly either never heard of leg day. He was so unbalanced-looking he didn't look real to me - more like he'd been assembled from a couple of different people. I've never seen anything like it outside of a photoshopped pic.
Why would you deliberately work to look like that?
I would like to see a picture of this. I googled "train just chest and arms" in the hope of finding one but had no luck.1 -

I kind of wish I had taken one, but I didn't really think about it.
The pic I'm thinking about was a 'friends don't let friends skip leg day' meme. It didn't really capture the odd upper body development, more the difference between and upper and lower..
Honestly, the massive delts and zero traps looked as weird to me. Even my mother noticed and wanted to know what he did to get his shoulders looking like that - in a very 'WTF' tone.1 -

I'd say some photoshop work is more likely.1 -

You should really be able to see some amount of progress after a month or two. If not, you gotta switch things up. Try a program, join a gym, get a trainer, read into nutrition (!!!!!) and pretty please realize the importance of full body training.
When I started I just wanted good legs, a booty and abs. Then I realized the more you work everything, the better the results are going to be overall. Especially when it comes to your chest/shoulders. Incorporate back, arms, core and legs. You'll see a difference.1 -
Not enough tricep action1

Really, people? You don't believe a guy could go to the gym every other day for two years and only do curls and bench press?
C'mon.....0 -

I believe it. I see it all the time....lol.
This sounds trollish, but I have watched plenty of people workout for a year or 2 and look the same. So yea, not convinced the OP is a troll.1 -

Put it in the context of his tricep thread where he talked of how much progress he's made choosing and following random workouts

Have not seen the tricep thread.
People go to the gym and do the same thing for years with no changes to their bodies. It's not an impossible thing to believe a new poster might be doing. If you ask 10 non gym goers the names of 2 weightlifting exercises, odds are high they'll say bench press and/or curls. Why would it be hard to believe a teenager would do those two exercises ad nauseum. It sounds like there may be other sketchy threads by this OP but if there weren't, why not?0 -
