Injury Tolerance: Unbreakable Bones. That's not truly accurate, but it's close enough for gaming purposes. You could also justify increased HP.

Higher ST, paid for normally - a human with a genetic mutation that results in extreme muscle growth doesn't get a discount any more readily than an orc does. If you limit humans to ST 20, you might treat a character like this as having a higher cap, either as a Feature or perhaps a leveled Perk (essentially, a 1-point Unusual Background for every +1 to ST beyond 20, paid for when the character actually exceeds the previous cap).
