I wouldn't worry too much about it, especially this early in the program. Everybody's going to be starting out stronger in some muscles and weaker in others. Once you've worked up to enough reps, your delts will catch up to your pecs. But generally, the wider your hands and elbows, the more a pup emphasizes the pecs.
