Definition

'Jacked' is an informal word with several slang meanings: having strong, big muscles (especially from weightlifting); something stolen or robbed; or being very excited or energetic.

Usage & Nuances

Almost always used informally or in slang. Describing someone as 'jacked' refers to strong, muscular physique, often due to bodybuilding. 'Get jacked' means to become muscular. When used for objects ('My phone got jacked'), it means 'stolen,' mainly in American slang. It can also mean very excited or hyped: 'I'm jacked for the game.' Context is key—don't use formally, and don't confuse with 'jacket' or hydraulic 'jack'.
