A word formerly referring to broad-shouldered, thickly muscled guys of a more endo- or mesomorphic persuasion, but has been co-opted by fat bears who are too lazy to put in the work but like to pretend that mass of any type = muscles and are therefore attractive by the Law of Delusions principle. The male counterpart to "curvy," which until the 2000s meant a buxom woman with ample breasts and a healthy body and now means any size 28 or greater.
"If it were before the year 2000 I would say that jacked as shit dude over there was 'beefy,' but now in 2020 I must relegate it to that overweight guy with bitch-tits who looks like he might hav worked out once, 4 years ago.
