The only people who are "meant to be big" are those with hormonal imbalances. And even then, modern medicine can address most of their problems.

>>Sometimes you just can't fight your body and you're meant to be who you are.

It's true that you can't fight your body if you eat more calories than you consume. I noticed that the only part of your diet you listed was the type of food you eat. What about amount? Do you weigh your food, or have some other type of calorie estimation method? If not, you'll eat like a pig (especially at your activity level) and never realize it.

Apparently you don't watch rugby.

What does that even mean? Rugby players are big because they want to be big, not because they can't help it.

How can you possibly believe there is no genetic component in professional athletics?
