As a fat guy who is now trying to go /fit/, I call it "Fat Guy Strength."
Fat Guy Strength is the fact that fat guys lug around hundreds of pounds every day compared to a normal person. You would be able to build the strength to do it too if you had to carry aruond 100-200+ extra pounds of weight every day. Every step is literally heavy lifts for the legs.

Yeah I see this but didn't get to the upper body part. Our bench press max 2 months ago were 250 (me) and 155 (him). Now I was happy with mine (up to 270) but his bench sky rocketed as well (he got up fucking 235!). How does being fat make that possible!

I was a fat fucker for 15 years and I didn't get this mythical "Fat Guy Strength"
Seriously, all my lifts are weak as fuck after 6 months of SL

I have a question.
Should I take a break every other day, or every other day from working out?
Like, workworkbreakworkworkbreakworkworkbreak
or
workbreakworkbreakworkbreakworkbreak
I see several different sources telling different things.

lol lies, you're just baiting. No way you bench 250. Fucking summerfags

Because he has more mass. Moving mass is easier for him.

OP, you gotta take your eyes off your lifting partner and work on you.
Be happy that you introduced him to something that is improving his life, but continue to work on yourself.
You've gotten complacent because you're working alongside someone weaker than you.

How about when you invite your skinny friend to the gym and the fucker surpasses you in deadlift?
Granted I don't really train deadlifts
