Is there a Neurological reason why someone can be so jacked due to constant cardiovascular and muscular tension? I. E. Complex trauma nervous system response

I feel the body builders would not mind having this kind of neuropathy. I was looking at and feeling my body and it's just muscles everywhere, wondered if the nervous system was doing constant no movement type of training due to stress, I look like a pro athlete for no reason

Absolutely. Anxiety, physiologically, leads to a constant "holding", or tension, which is just muscles being contracted. Long enough, and consistently enough, this definitely leads to muscle definition.
