Something about over-developed muscles either attracts spider bites, or makes you more vulnerable to them.

I had a colleague whose hobby was cage-fighting, and who was ridiculously industrious about his physique. One bite from a humble white-tail, and he was off work for two weeks. A second bite, and such serious health problems set in that he never returned.
