{{Nihongo|'''THEThe Hustle'''|{{Ruby|THE|ザ}} ハッスル|Za Hassuru}} is the [[Stand]] of [[Paco Laburantes]], featured in the ninth part of the ''[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure]]'' series, ''[[The JOJOLands]]''.

THEThe Hustle grants Paco expert control over musculature, enabling him to strengthen himself, and hold objects using the muscles anywhere on his body.

THEThe Hustle manifests as an integrated ability for Paco, typically appearing as his muscles bulging out or vibrating.

THEThe Hustle morphs Paco's muscles to bulge and be able to grab onto things, such as with the backs of his hands or his elbows. He can easily swipe objects such as wallets without even needing to move the joints in his fingers. [[Jodio Joestar|Jodio]] describes Paco's muscles as being similar to when people tense up their muscles to trap mosquitoes sucking blood.<ref name="TJL1">{{Ch|TJL Chapter 1}}</ref> For example, he is capable of trapping his enemy's limbs<ref name="TJL4">{{Ch|TJL Chapter 4}}</ref> or weapons<ref name="TJL10">{{Ch|TJL Chapter 10}}</ref> in his muscles.
