The magical few year workout is called lifting weights. Someone who is 200lbs should, with proper training, be able to easily lift 300 1RM.
If you start at 150lb 1RM, maintain your 200lb, and go up 5lbs a week, that is 30 weeks. Let's say an additional 50% to account for plateaus and rest weeks, that is 45 weeks. Less than a year. There is really no reason a dedicated person couldn't do that. Steroids not required.
Not everyone is capable of just continuously getting stronger, it gets harder and harder to get that 5lb progression, and there's a certain point where that "plateau" will take way more than just a few extra weeks to get past.
