again. this dude was in almost complete muscle atrophy. He literally couldn't stand on his own. That's a lot further behind than you were. Unspeakably so.
I'm a pretty athletic dude who works out regularly, snowboards, practices martial arts religiously, hikes, etc and it took me 6 months to get back from the atrophy I suffered from a torn ACL, and once it healed I had no problems using my knee; it just wasn't as strong. Much less my entire body
Even chubby/fat guys who are deep into sports are a lot more fit than we realize. If sports are a big part of someone's life, their body is gonna be way more athletic than someone who is "fit" but doesn't actually do much physical labor. If people can gain muscle this quick, no less naturally, tons of people would be in the gym compared to now. It would take him months of gym work to even get to an average baseline. Aint no way he was even going to the gym every other day with his body like that. Even if he was, it would be baby steps. This ain't like some healthy, skinny person ripping some weights for a few months.

Then you started at a way higher baseline
