A character with a bulky, muscular physique that must have come from extensive training, body building or otherwise.

For characters with an athletic build that's not overly bulky, see toned instead. Details like bulkiness of the thick arms, a thick neck, a strongman waist and broad shoulders are a good way to distinguish between toned and muscular builds.
