If he was 10 when he left the Time Chamber, then it makes sense that he's 11 by the Cell Games.

      Gohan is the only saiyan to age properly. Goku looked like a kid at 12 too. Goku, you could argue, saiyans age differently. Especially since after reaching adulthood they keep their peak age for many years. Maybe it's possible they stay kids longer too. Even though we didn't know Goku was an alien in Dragon Ball. It doesn't make sense why half saiyans like Gohan would have different rules than Goten and Trunks. It's not like Gohan inherited less saiyan Gene's because he is the only half saiyan to have a tail.

You look at Gohan and it’s pretty obvious he got his height genes from his mother’s side of the family (Ox king perhaps). Trunks and Goten got the wrong end of the stick when it came to their heights (both from their father’s side).

      Dragon Ball is set in a weird world.

      He was more like 10 because of the time chamber but 9 in real world time. Because if I recall it was only about a year and a half or less between gokus fight with Frieza and Trunks coming to warn them. Where as this guy said it was two years, but I think it was more like over a year but not two years. Plus he didn't spend the full year in the time chamber. So Gohan is more like 9 in real world time 10 in the time chamber time. So that pretty much fixes the videos confusion.

    I liked to think due that Saiyans can just age rapidly due to amount of stress given to that Saiyan, like full blooded Saiyans had to age quickly to maturity to have the best combat experience and advantage due to decades of sending younglings to worlds to conquer, and this could be said true to Goku since when he was 12 he looked like a 6 year old cause he didn't had a threat of death when growing up in the jungle but introduce Piccolo, few years later and boom 18 year old Goku looked like an 18 year old. While Gohan he just grow quickly to deal with the likes for Cell though it was not enough time to reach teen Goku height when Gohan had to fight Cell but if Gohan did had the time like Goku to grow into an adult form then he would due to the stress of combat and near death.
    I think this theory make sense since present Trunk still looked like a 8 year old despite being like 18, while his future counter part being in a apocalyptic dystopia, when he was 12 he looked like 12 and when he was 18 he looked like a 18 year old (I don't know the correct age of them but you can see what I implying) like the creator has the character adult to teen bodies of both Trunks and Goten but he did not use it, cause future Trunks is already drawn as a teen to adult and Goten is just a copy paste of Goku, so they have the bodies structure and can do it but they didn't
    That said what makes sense that Saiyans living in a peaceful environment doesn't need to grow rapidly to have an advantage of being a adult in combat cause there is no need for combat.
    so thinking about this then Zenkais boost must have a hidden ability that makes Saiyans not only grow stronger near deaths but grow and mature the bodies to handle that level power as well (like if you put a 1litre of water it would just explode in a 0.75ml water bottle, so obviously you would have to expand the water bottle to handle that access of water being added)

    Always thought Gohan was 10 fighting Cell and just about to turn 11 (birthday being filler of course, his birthday is in May 767 but it's not stated the date there). But Gohan was around 6, 6.5 when Goku came back from Yardrat, 3 years of training I say 9, about to turn 10, then room of spirit and time going in at 9, not a full year, and he comes out at 10 since his real birthday passed in there. So realistically he still could've been about to turn 11 in the room of spirit and time.
    Worth noting, Japanese schoolyears start in April so he would be 16 in the Buu Saga if 7 years passed since Cell died. So I think he was 10 when he killed Cell since his "real" birthday had already passed in the room of spirit and time, so basically the outside birthday wouldn't count, to me.
