Etymology
The word muscled comes from muscle, which comes from the Latin musculus meaning 'little mouse', because people long ago thought a moving muscle looked like a small mouse under the skin. So, to be muscled is to have strong, visible muscles, and the 'little mouse' image helps you remember it means having well-developed muscles.
