At 18 all you need is a good diet and exercise plan. You can make great gains and recover so fast that it makes us old guys jealous.
Also learn about proper warm up, exercise mechanics, and rolling or stretching for cool down - so you don't hurt yourself and can do this a long time.

lots of irresversible damage can be done if you cycle at your still young age. you will get far better results eating properly and hitting the weights. you will be better off spending that money that you would spend in aas and soend it on a gym membership and lots of food.
Was mentioned above to warm up, stretch, cool down. Do these things and make sure you're using good form and you just can't go wrong at your youthful starting point. Experiment with your diet. Make sure you are eating a lot of clean food, especially if your gains seem to be coming too slowly. At your age lots of guys hit each muscle twice per week. Use this time to figure out if you personally grow better with higher reps or higher weight low reps (most likely a combo of the 2 will produce the best results). Focus on getting a GREAT pump every time you're in the gym and get in the gym as often as you can. FIND the time. You're in an exciting place for weight lifting. You WILL see the best gains of your life right now if you eat hard and workout even harder. Do whatever you have to do to find motivation to lift most every day. Work out partners with the same goals as you and that NEVER miss a workout. Soon you'll have some much more specific questions and then you find some folks to ask.......like the great group of guys on this site. The guys on here know how to work out and sacrifice for the body they want.....and they will GLADLY pass their passion along to you.
Good luck my friend. Lift , sleep, and eat HARD

even if op aint asking for cycle advice its still good to tell him off the bat to stay of of aas, he is of course in a Steroid forum, the title alone says that very clearly. he could of easily gone to a simple bodybuilding forum and asked there.

OK, I figured out your Weight ~ 16 Stone is 224 Lbs.
But this means nothing without your Height and Approx. Body Fat %.
You could either be a Lean 224 Lbs, or a Fat 224 Lbs.
From here, it's just a matter of how much time do you have to devote to Bodybuilding.
Do you have 3 Days or more.
Push/Pull Splits are good for Beginners, you can get more work in, in less time.
Plus you don't Over-train.
Doing some HIIT training on your Off Days is good for Endurance and Fat Reduction.
More Info would be helpful for the Members to give you their thoughts.................. JP
