Have you tried weightlifting?

Yup. I didn't notice any muscle development; I did seem able to lift somewhat larger weights over time, but that could have been placebo or skill.

Such developments are hard to notice in someone you see every day e.g. yourself. Did you ask someone who hadn't seen you in a while (or maybe look at a picture of yourself from before you had started weightlifting)?
