what makes people naturally bigger / stronger than others?

there is a 16 y/o hawaiian kid at my gym that is 6'0 and like 190lb, pretty lean and all he did before joining a gym was apparently sports and gymnastics as a kid.

despite this he already outlifts me within 6 months of training with barbells while I've been training 2.5 years and weigh a tad bit more. what genetically separates him and I?

>what genetically separates him and I?
genes? I don't get what you're trying to ask.

>>36496209
island people are the BBCs of the sea. They have serious genetics for strength

>>36496233
I mean, what is specifically different? bone structure, muscle structure, hormones?

>>36496237
I don't think he's unnatty
>>
>>36496243
All of the above, or maybe just a combination of some.

Genes are what make people different man, and unless you map out his genome specifically you're not going to get a cut and dry answer.

Gee I wonder,he's been training his whole life and you've been a wow gamer until 2,5 years ago when you decided to lay off the doritos and mountain dew and do powerlifting. That's what seperates you. Time.
also your genetics sucks bro

My bests are a 415lb squat, 285lb touch and go bench and 455lb deadlift at 190lb. it took me a year to go from 315lb to 405lb deadlift and nearly 18 months to go from 225lb to 285lb bench

meanwhile this lad literally started on deadlifts with 315lb and has just LP'd his way to 425lbx5 last time I saw him and he is benching 265lbx5 with flat back retard form

I only really am stronger on squats and am certainly not weak

If he's Hawaiian, there's a good chance he's got some Samoan in him. When's the last time you saw a small Samoan?

>>36496305
>Gee I wonder,he's been training his whole life

how the fuck does track and field and bodyweight exercises translate to barbells you fucking idiot

he threw little metal balls and ran around, that has literally zero in common with lifting

please read the sticky at least before posting ffs

>ballthrower
Gee, I Wonder why all olympic winners at That are permabulked

>he threw little metal balls

Please google "shotput" and tell me how many weak looking people you see. throwers and shotputters are some of the biggest freaks on earth and it gets you jacked as fuck

>>36496396
Not to mention, that half of them are powerlifters

Newton's second law, kid.

>>36496350
If he's been doing sports for a long time, his mind-muscle connection is likely a lot better than some average Joe that just gets into lifting. Movement is all about your central nervous system and how efficiently it can fire neurons with the tools that it is given.

This x100000

Gymnastics are just as good as lifting weights.

Rrrrrrrrrrrrroids!!!!!

Great answer and agreed, sporting from child fans out to several areas that involve motor skills later in life.
