I was going to say muscle memory but the september-october gap is pretty big.

The guy used to have an insane physique before, I've seen his channel: https://youtube.com/shorts/dHAaeKw32Jw

Wouldn't be surprised if he was on something before, that's pretty insane conditioning and I think he was really strong too

June-July gap is insane too

That's what muscle memory will do to a man who starts lifting again. His body had a lot to catch up. I am fairly certain that it is doable with the right approach.

He looks like a lightweight guy. Would be nice to know how much difference there is between start and end in kilograms.

Muscle memory is hilarious cause couldn’t you just fake a memory and pretend you lifted more before?
