                                Over half of all adults in the U.S. engage in some form of resistance training, yet many remain confused about how to achieve muscle 'hardness' or density. This phenomenon, often misinterpreted as asking 'How strong is Mike's harder?' (a phrase confusing a beverage with a fitness goal), is a complex interplay of diet, body fat, and specific training techniques, not just lifting heavy weights.
