Via the capillaries, it doesn't actually come in contact with the muscles directly, but is contained by the capillaries which are just one cell thick. From these all the nutrient (i.e. Oxygen, glucose etc.) simply pass across the capillary walls by diffusion. The blood enters the capillaries from the arteries and exits in to the veins.
