scuffed up
 adj.β€” Β«Getting “smoked,” or “a smoking” as it is also referred to, is a slang term in the military used to describe a tough and usually relatively quick work out normally used as a punishment. Everyone in Civilian World would call it “drop and give me 20.” It’s not correct as it’s not a long enough workout, but you get the idea. A phrase that can be used to mean the same thing is “scuffed up.” Smokings can be conducted individually or en masse.Β» β€”β€œBeat your face!” by dreadcow Fun With Hand Grenades Apr. 19, 2005.
