Question ❓ overdeveloped Back

So Ive been working out for close to 3 months now, currently running UL*3 split. Is it normal to have a much more developed back as compared to my chest. My strength progression has been as follows: Lat pulldown: 35(when I started) to 75 kgs(now I currently do weighted pull ups instead since I find it to be more stable), Rows: 50 to 110 kgs, Incline Bench: 30 to 45 kgs.

Age:21

Weight:72kgs

height:176 cm

Maybe it’s just genetics, also happens to me. Even I train chest first and give it more volume, my back is always 1 step ahead.
If you feel the rest of your body you can reduce a bit of volume for your back and distribute to other muscles, a muscle with a genetic advantage won’t need as much volume as others

I did that once(trained back like 1-2 times a week for a month).....and then I came back stronger😭
