Muscle
Muscle — strength visible in the body — often touches strange encounters with enemies you'll surmount and fortune gained, or, if shrunken, an inability to succeed. The dream may ask where you feel your power to prevail growing or wasting, and whether the strength you can muster is equal to the struggles ahead of you.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for muscle, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To dream of seeing your muscle well developed, you will have strange encounters with enemies, but you will succeed in surmounting their evil works, and gain fortune.
If they are shrunken, your inability to succeed in your affairs is portended. For a woman, this dream is prophetic of toil and hardships.
