Why is my bro stronger then me?

The other day my brother and I were wresting around and he tossed me aside easily without much effort while I was using all of my strength to prevent this.

My brother is one year younger then me, about 15 pounds lighter, and an inch or two taller then me. We pretty much eat the same food, and have similar life styles. He rarely exercises. I use to exercise a lot in high school, and now that I am in University I do some light exercises for about 20 - 30 minutes a day during my break inbetween semisters. I am wondering why my brother is significantly stronger then me. We have had arm wrestles and he wins only by a bit, however, when we wrestle he can easily overpower me without much effort?

In addition, I have noticed that ever since I have started exercising my metabolism has skyrocketed. I normally eat three meals a day: breakfast, lunch, dinner. I eat a normal portion and I usually don't feel hungry between meals. Now that school has ended and I have began exercising, I get hungry every two or three hours. Is this normal as my body is trying to cope with the extra exercise?
 
just because he throws you doesnt mean he is stronger he may have better balance etc.
then there is genetics maybe he isnt really your brother.


























:xmas: joke
 
Could he have more leverage then you since he is taller to it makes it easier, without strength to toss you around like a rag doll :D
