At age 15, he started lifting weights for two hours a day, six days a week

Overtraining.

That, and also he might be training wrong. Enormous quads, no hamstrings etc.

Bad enough when an adult does unbalanced exercises, but if a 15-yr old were to do them! Still, no doubt he has expert help.

More like hangs out 2 hrs and lifts about 15 min. Seen the profile for decades.

If he is rotating muscle groups, he is not overtraining. When I was in the military, we trained in 90 minute secions, twice a day 6 days a week when deployed. At 15 he has plenty of testostrone so his recover time will be measured in hours rather than days.

True. You have to give your muscles some rest time to rebuild.

Exaggeration?
