Muscleman may denote any man with well-developed muscles, in particular a bodybuilder. In art-related and anatomical contexts, the term is also used for a model in wax (or, in modern times, of unbreakable plastic material) showing the muscles of a man.Roberta Panzanelli, ed., Ephemeral Bodies: Wax Sculpture and the Human Figure, with a translation of Julius von Schlosser's History of Portraiture in Wax (Getty Publications, 2008), p. 277. Such a figure showing the muscles of the human body without skin is also called écorché.
