Etymologie (English)
In summary
From Middle Dutch spier (“pointed object; blade of grass; long pole; muscle”), from Old Dutch *spīr, from Proto-Germanic *spīraz, *spīrǭ. In Middle Dutch, the word took the meaning "muscle", likely due to the similarities in shape between its earlier meanings and muscle fibers.
