Yes it is actually. When you get mad your adrenaline increases
Adrenaline
Hormone secreted by the medulla of the adrenal glands. Adrenaline is synthesized from a closely related substance, noradrenaline, and the two hormones are released into the bloodstream in situations of fear or stress.
Adrenaline's action on the liver raises blood-sugar levels by stimulating glucose production and its action on adipose tissue raises blood fatty-acid levels; it also increases the heart rate, increases blood flow to muscles, reduces blood flow to the skin with the production of sweat, widens the smaller breathing tubes

It's called adrenaline. It increases your strength, speed, etc due to stress. It's the same principle for every being, not just Thor.
Er yeah I know. We are not disagreeing on anything you need to talk to soljer not me.

Also a myth. Adrenaline doesn't actually amp your strength or speed. It elevates your autonomous nervous system, frees nutrients for muscular action, constricts blood vessels in some parts of the body, while dilating those for muscular action, dilates pupils, and inhibits certain processes like the urinary and tear secretion.Your muscular fibers are still the same density, the same length, the same level of hypertrophy.
Aren't you assuming that your muscles hAVE to get bigger to make you stronger? Isn't increased blood flow to the muscles going to make you stronger as well?
