What does "swole" mean in fitness slang?
The adjective "swole" describes someone who is extremely muscular, physically bulky, or visibly enlarged from exercise and bodybuilding. The structure comes from a nonstandard slang form of "swollen," used metaphorically to describe muscles expanded through training. It is common in gym culture and often used humorously or admiringly to emphasize impressive size, strength, or muscular definition.
Examples
After months of intense training and strict dieting, he became incredibly swole, impressing everyone at the gym.
