Chimps don't have genes that stunt the development of muscles. Some people have only one muscle supression gene and are very atletic naturally. There is one Russian girl who has no muscle-supression genes at all and she is freakishly strong. Much stronger than the average adult male twice her weight.

Humans have these muscle supression genes to conserve energy. Thats why humans could survive without food for longer times. Our oversized brain consumes 20-25% of our calories so the rest of our body is kind of economy-clas and build for endurance not strength. We rely on weapons, tools and misiles for the last couple of 100.000 years.

I am sorry I don't know the names of the genes and growth-hormones involved.

I've heard the same thing. Humans only use 50-60% of their real strength. I heard it was to prevent injury though.
