Muscle Maturity..

[anavarstop]

Hello All, had some questions.

I was talking to someone at my gym today and he had some advice for me. (he is 19 and knows everything)

He told me that over time staying natural my body will stay the same size at a certain point but I will gain "muscle maturity" essentially a way of progression after the "peak size" you obtain. He claims at the same BF% and same size (we will use arms as an example) arms, they will look more striated and leaner and overall better than someone the same BF%, height, genetics, size arms, etc.

Is this real? He couldn't tell me how he came to this conclusion unless he would pull up a AI summary on google how muscle gets more dense overtime to prove his point.

I'd love to hear your guys input on this. I'm young and have a lot to learn but I'm not naive, I don't believe everything everyone tells me including google. Thanks

Man, the "gym philosopher" strikes again. Honestly, the 19-year-olds at the gym are always the ones who’ve mastered the secrets of the universe after six months of lifting.

That "muscle maturity" talk is mostly old school bro-science that people use to explain why older lifters look "harder." Usually, it’s just a mix of those guys actually being more consistent with their diet, having better mind-muscle connection, or just carrying way less systemic inflammation than a newbie. If the size and body fat are identical, the muscle is the muscle. You can't really make a muscle "denser" without it actually growing or you losing fat.

Google AI summaries are basically the new "trust me bro." Don't sweat it too much—just keep putting in the reps and let him keep "maturing" while you actually get bigger.

Do you want me to look into what actually causes that "hard" look in long-term lifters so you can shut his argument down next time?
