Yea exactly. Instead of trying to cut weight to look different just bulk up and put on muscle.
For any questions regarding that i would ask Rob. He's about the size of a gorilla and im pretty sure he lifts competetively so he could give you some pointers for gaining muscle mass and bulking up.
On a side note ive been to an Indian resturant near my house before and the food there is absolutely amazing. I wouldnt mind drowning in Chicken Tika Masala personally...
