ropey muscles Hello! What kind of muscles are called ropey? Is it positive a negative? Does it mean that the muscles are sinewy, stringy or wiry? "I'll overnight youse back to Russia, and, oh, boy, I'm sorry to say this, but, uh but on Delta. Where are my manners? Let me show you around. Uh, pool table, uh, jukebox Barney. We have alcoholics, too. But ours are thin, with ropey muscles." Thank you!

Hi Sasha, Ropey is used to mean inferior or below par : https://educalingo.com/en/dic-en/ropey In the above context used with muscles it means hard stiff muscles: "People with hard, ropey muscle texture that you could bounce an axe off of … may have no apparent problems with pain or stiffness. People with soft, doughy muscle texture … may feel incredibly stiff and sore." above sentences are taken from : https://www.painscience.com/articles/youre-really-tight.php I hope this helps. Have a great day. By the way your name : Sasha is the name of the hero in Jeffery Archer's novel : Heads you win.:) It is a very nice book.
