Okay, guys, let’s talk about this “visibly muscular” thing from the NYT Mini Crossword today. I saw the clue and I was like, “Alright, what could this be?” I started racking my brains, thinking about all sorts of words related to muscles and strength, you know?
So, I grabbed my phone and started to dig into this thing. I typed “visibly muscular NYT” into the search bar, and boom, a bunch of results popped up. Most of them pointed to the same answer: TONED.
My First Try
- I tried a few other words first, just to be sure.
- Thought about “buff,” “ripped,” but they didn’t fit the five-letter requirement.
- Then I remembered, “toned” is a word people use to describe someone who’s got some muscle definition going on.
Got It!
I plugged “TONED” into the crossword grid, and it fit perfectly! It was a bit of a “duh” moment, but hey, sometimes the simplest answer is the right one. I mean, it’s right there in the clue – “visibly.” You can see the muscles, so they’re toned, right?
I finished up the rest of the crossword, feeling pretty good about myself. It’s always satisfying to crack those clues, especially when they seem a bit tricky at first. This whole experience reminded me that sometimes you just gotta look at things from a different angle, and the answer will be right there staring you in the face.
Anyway, that’s my little adventure with today’s NYT Mini. Hope you guys found it helpful, or at least a little bit entertaining. Keep those brains working, folks!
