<STRONG>YG's skill increased after 16 years because he developed 'the sad palms'. He was extremely depressed during the period of separation and this enabled him to use his grief to develop the 'sad palms.'
There's no mention that GJ developed any new skill since the beginning of ROCH. Besides, he was too preoccupied with other affairs like defending the country. Its extremely doubtful that he would have spent much time on his skills.

Developing new skills are not equivalent to being stronger. There was probably no value in developing new skills if mastering or continuing the refinement of unique skills such as the HL18palm will bring more reward in terms of increasing the efficiency of attack by improving technique, or by cultivating inner powers to deliver stronger attack.
