I wasn't sure where to post this, but heres the scenario.

I have been training for under two years, relatively seriously. A buddy of mine just started training too, with me, 7 months ago. He is already stronger than I am in all chest excersises and many tricep excersises, and is gaining steadily on all my others. Here are the stats My budy is short, 5'6'' and stocky 195lbs. He started shaving at about grade 8 and can easily grow a beard at age 17-18, and he is now 19. He was always naturaly more built than all our friends and he has played hockey for many years. Now, me, Im 5'10'' 198 lbs, less bf% than my buddy and I cant even grow sideburns! I used to be fat and lost alot of bf about two years ago. Now, does it sound like my buddy is just maturing much faster than me, and my natural test levels haven't really kicked in yet? My mom said my dad didn't fill out till he was about 26 years old. Im just trying to figure out how he can come into the gym and almost blow by me in 7 months with half the dedication I have!?

well im 14 and havent even hit puberty yet, so dont feel bad. but ur freind just might have more test. in his body natuarally than u do. or from the sound of it, he matured alot sooner than u. everyone is different. u both r to young to tell yet.

Well i just think it's individual genetics. I'm 21 and it takes me a good 4 or 5 months to grow 5 o clock shadow. Be careful what you wish for, my girlfriend loves the fact the my face is smooth for days after i shave ( 1 every week and 1/2 or so). Checks a clean shave.
