A lot of lifting is genetics. Experience comes into play as well.
He might have been lifting for a much longer time than you have been.
As a side note, 2500 cals/day @ 201 lbs of bodyweight isn't necessarily a whole lot. Are you trying to gain mass?Be a man. Be awesome at it. Be proud of it. Beyond the Barbell

Genetics, drugs, could be anything. Don't sweat it, just concentrate on yourself.

In Memphis, it is illegal for a woman to drive by herself, unless a man is walking or running infront of the vehicle, waving a red flag in order to warn approaching pedestrians and motorists.

I would say either great genetics but more likely drugs. It could be natural but .... those are far and very few between. Look at the all natural bodybuilders or much older bodybuilders, which would be some of most genetically gifted, and compare. They are in general not that big (where big = Arnold).
I would use that guy to get pissed off enough to work out like mad. That seems to help me overcome mental blocks which I think hinder me much worse than genetics.
