It honestly depends just as much on your diet/nutrition program as it does on your workout regimine. To say "bodybuilding workout" is also REALLY vague; be more specific. What type of set/rep range are you working in; what kind of split, etc etc etc. Are you going on a bulk/cut cycle? You really need to add more detail before anyone can even semi-accurately predict how long it’ll take before you see real results. And even then, your personal metabolism and body chemistry play a huge role in determining that.

It shouldn’t take too long. Make sure you suppliment your training with a protein shake to aid the building process. Start off getting your shoulders, chest and legs strong and then work on the individual areas.
If you haven’t trained before, spend your first sessions just doing bench-press for your chest, shoulder press for your shoulders, and squats for your legs. This will get those areas going. Make sure you use an olypic bar for all these – not machines. Do this every time you go to the gym and after a month or so plan a routine for each session targetting a couple of muscle-groups each time you go, e.g. Chest and biceps, then Shoulders and Triceps, then legs and back. That’s just an example – do whatever is best for you. Enjoy.

It all depends upon your body size, frame build, and type of weightlifting you do. I am 45, and I lift using weight machines at the YMCA, more for muscle toning then for the bulk. I would say I started seeing the results after about a month (I have been lifting for about three years).
Word of caution to you. Start out at your own pace, and, at best, lift every other day, to allow your muscles time to rest. Don’t go beyond what feels comfortable to your own body, and (believe me I learned this the hard way) don’t keep an eye on the others in the gym to try to keep up with them. They at one time were starting out just like you are now, and it took them time and consistency to get to where they are today.
If you are going to use free weights, always have a spotter when you’re bench pressing, because sometimes the body feels like it can do so many reps at a certain weight, but then muscles can get tired, and not having that spotter can be dangerous as you try to get the weight bar back on the hook.
Drink plenty of water, and start doing so at least two-three hours before you start lifting. It is critical that you keep your muscles hydrated, so they can operate at peak efficiency.
Finally, if you have access to a sauna room, use it before and after working out. Five minutes in it before working out loosens up the muscles so they are more flexible for lifting, and five-ten minutes afterwards relaxes them to help avoid soreness and tiredness. Keep water with you while in the sauna, to replinish any fluids you will loose from sweating.
Wishing you the best with it. Don’t be surprised if you actually gain weight at first, because you will be building muscle, which weighs more then fat. But you will also be burning fat as well, and you’ll notice those jeans will start feeling loose by mid-July or early-August if you stay at it consistently, and at a pace that your body feels comfortable with.

MY bf was very skinny in his teens. He hated his body and got into bodybuilding. He was able to build a lean built body by using "The New Encyclopedia of Modern Body Building" by Arnold Schwarzenegger. This book by Arnold lays out the workouts by body parts and combinations. I used to work in Health Clubs and almost every body builder used this book.Good Luck.
